It's that time of year again, when our thoughts go focus on what we are going to do this summer and of course the one word on our minds was… Zombie Fest 2007…
Unfortunately, if this is the first time you are reading this page then the event is now FULL. You are too late but we can let you know about future events by joining our mailing list! Just click the button at the bottom of the page....
This year event will feature, once again, zombie films, guest stars, games, shooting and archery with zombie targets and of course, The Zombie Experience…
This Zombie Experience, is being set in the village of Willard during the summer of 1977 and will start with the traditional village fete and will end with a handful of survivors, loads of undead and gallons of blood. Last year 50 characters encountered the Horrors of Willard Valley and ONE SURVIVED… This part of the event is LRP (or Live Role Play), which means you take on the role of a character, dress as and act as that character and from there you will encounter a whole nightmare of the living dead! It has a high body count, but if you die, you come back to eat the people that sold you out, or perhaps didn't try their hardest to save you.
For more details on this part of the weekend check out our LRP Section for the basic rules and costume suggestions. Just CLICK HERE…
Simple really, you will find out if you would survive…
TIME… Anytime from 4 o'clock...
DATE… 17th to 19th August, 2007
LOCATION… The Quarries Campsite, Cosgrove, Nr. Milton Keynes.
THE PLAN FOR THE WEEKEND…
Friday Night will feature an Introduction to Zombie Fest followed by a couple of short zombie films and then a feature presentation, all shown on a huge cinema quality screen with cinema quality projection equipment, supplied by the Phoenix Arts Centre in Leicester. Following this will be zombie based games and craziness for one and all to get involved with…
Saturday Mornings plan is to have some breakfast and a few gallons of tea and then to blow bits out of some zombie targets on the sites Archery and Shooting ranges, this is amazing fun and will help hone your killing skills for the zombies that are to come later on.
Saturday Lunchtime will involve a make up demo, a Barbecue and general chilling out and getting into costume for the madness to come.
Saturday Afternoon, last year the Zombie Experience lasted for just short of eight hours, forty nine of the fifty characters become zombies and the site was awash with blood! A great time was had by all.
Saturday Night involves drinking, eating and relaxing after the days activities, but for those who are keen enough to keep your make up jobs on, there is the Legendary Zombie Catwalk… Best zombie wins all…
Sunday involves getting up, but not too early, breakfast, more tea and then a prize giving ceremony in categories such as best Zombie, worst shot with a bow and arrow and possibly prizes for the survivors…. If anyone makes it this year…
To sum up the weekend, it's crazy, exhausting, loads of fun and of course full to bursting with Zombies.
FOOD AND DRINK…
This is something that last years guest couldn't quite believe… The Everythings a Pound menu… Cold beers, cheese-burgers, chicken-burgers, veggie-burgers and baked potatoes on Saturday night, bacon rolls for breakfast, everything is a pound or less, things like cans of soft drink, tea, coffee and toast are all less than a pound. We also have veggie alternatives for all meals too.
We were fed up of going to events and being charged a fiver for a small wet burger and a can of coke… so that why we do this…
ACCOMODATION…
Camping, there are plenty of camping spaces available, the main field, a couple of smaller and probably quieter side areas if you fancy something quieter. When you arrive and check in, you'll be shown where you can camp…
