Music

As with any event in the Shaw, good music is the cornerstone. We've got a mix of live bands and DJs playing across the weekend. Lighting Phil Blues take to the main floor on Friday and Saturday, with No GMO Jazz covering Sunday. Then it's DJ sets in Beatyard all weekend, plus DJ takeovers in Racket Space too.

Games

A core part of the weekend is the Crisp Fest games on the mainfloor. Essentially, we've created a number of tasks and contests revolving around crisps, giving punters an entertaining event and contestants a chance at glory. Anyone can get involved, and winners will be blessed with drink tokens and free bags of the salty stuff. Games to expect this year:

  • The Hot Chip Challenge

  • Blind Crisp Tasting

  • The Jonnie Onion Ring Content

Crisps

Everything else is about eating as many different crisps as possible in as many different ways

  • Choose a new flavour or old favourite from the Crisp Fest tuck shop

  • Taste one of our crisp-infused food specials

  • Grab a DIY crisp sambo kit and get creative
