canardo Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Re: Virgin Festival 4th-5th April / Newcastle give kayak.com a try as well as it can also show you a map of where the hotels are The hilton had a fairly decent offer in that you could get breakfast and dinner for the first night for just over 200 (and Virgin airmiles through Hilton honours) Are most people going to be in Aspers on the Friday as well?

Junior Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Re: Virgin Festival 4th-5th April / Newcastle Well then ... looks like I'm joining the big boys this time! Another one for the PL list I guess, look forward to seeing you all there. Can't wait to go to the poker festival and actually play a fair bit of poker, rather than overdosing on the Wii (although I'm sure I'll be able to fit in a bit of that as well, never fear).

Robbiebox Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Re: Virgin Festival 4th-5th April / Newcastle Planning on driving back on Sat night if out as the mighty Barrow Raiders take on Wigan in the RL Challenge Cup. So I don't want to book a room, however if I make 2nd day will stay, what will be best chances of getting any kind of accomodation at 1am sat night? PS ~ for those without anywhere yet, just checked travelodge, they have Gateshead on Friday @£56 and Newcastle center on Saturday @£85......got to be quick though less than 5 rooms available in each.
