2024 Highlights

2024 has been packed with events from Concerts,Ghosts, Fireworks to Wrestling! Can't wait to see what 2025 has in store!


Take That

Seeing Take That and Olly Murs was fanatstic. Had a grin from start to finish, and the people sitting around me certainly knew when my favourite songs came on!! And i have no words to describe the fantastic firework finale!

AEW 2024

Second year of seeing AEW at Wembley with my best mate and it didnt disappoint. I actually knew some of the people this year 😂. Being closer to the action was even better!

UncannyCon 2024

This was the first time attending the event, and it wont be the last, as it was brilliant! The stories being told made my hairs stand up! Meeting Danny, Evelyn Hollow and Ciaran O’Keeffe was a highlight. The live recording of the podcast was fantastic with the amazing Reece Shearsmith as the guest!



Summerfest 2024

This was the absolute highlight of 2024 for me, being at Blackgang for 12hours and what happened in the 12 hours was just perfect. Meeting Laura and visiting the Room of Nostalgia was amazing. Seeing past attractions like Darwin and The Weather Wizard just made me have the biggest grin ever. I managed to get to see the new Cowboy show twice and it was funny and even had explosions!

Seeing the park illuminated was wow, and the awesome sunset that evening. The DJ section was brilliant, with characters from the park involved. And the fireworks, all choreographed to music was the perfect end of a perfect day. I wont lie but i got on that bus and had tears of happiness the whole way back to Newport!

West End Live 2024

I say it every year but this year's event was the best year. There isnt much that would have me queuing outside Trafalagar Square at 4am but West End Live is well worth it. Every performance this year was amazing, and as usual i discovered a new show that i went to see shortly after and loved. I do feel sorry for the people around me during the Choir of Man and Six performances as i sang along to every song! Already planning 2025!

Abba Voyage

This has been near the top of my bucket list for shows to see in London and i finally saw it this year and im still in shock about how good it was. The arena was like the Tardis, small outside but huge inside and the show was WOW! I still have no idea how it was achieved but it looked like the members of Abba actually standing on the stage!

Fiesta of the Dead

Blackgang always pulls off a brilliant event, and Fiesta of the Dead was no exception to this! The fire show was amazing, with brilliant music and the cast outstanding. The park looked amazing with floating skulls around and the park illuminated! This was the first time i had spent 2 days in a row at the park and it was well-worth, seeing the park, meeting fellow Blackgang Fans, another trip to the Room of Nostalgia and even meeting Joe Suggs!

MCM Comic Con London 2024

MCM Comic Con is always a staple of my year and this year was perfect, it felt like it was back to its pre-pandemic days of being a huge. It was great wondering around the different booths, seeing all the cos-players, playing retro games with my best mate and then dragging him to see the cast of Once Upon A Time!

Blackpool Illuminations Switch On 2024

A permanent fixture on my calander, this years Switch On was brilliant with Massaoke, Sydnie Christmas, Kimberly Wyatt, Ella Henderson performing and Mel B pulling the famous switch!
