I think it is pretty good value
I was happy to pay last year to spend 2 days in a field with a load of friends having a really good laugh. I love mach cos there is plenty of space for the kids to run around and be safe, and they never get tired of seeing the bird man, the medieval re-enactment, the car smash, the wrong driving car and the bmx guy last year was brilliant
I have always thought of mach as a chilled out friends and family kind of show and i am glad that it isn't full of stalls selling crap that i don't need and that i would never buy if they were in my local high street

............... thats what the bigger shows are for (in my opinion)
