T4 On The Beach Flashback

Last July, my friend and I traveled to Western Super Mere for the day to go to T4 on the beach. It was also T4's 10th anniversary on the beach so I was excited I got to go. I'd also watch it on TV and dream of being at the festival and when we finally arrived it felt quite surreal. It took around two hours by train to get there with us having to take 6 trains in total. Mostly everyone on the train were going to the festival and the atmosphere on the train was great. The weather was terrible, typical British weather while we we're travelling. However when we arrived the sun came out and I ended up burning my face, leaving me with sunglasses marks around my eyes for days. I'd never been to a festival as such, only concerts in arenas so when I saw 50,000 people, my mouth dropped. The hosts of T4 include Will Best, Nick Grimshaw, Matt Edmonson, Jameela Jamil and Georgie Okell. There are many attractions there including:
❤Main Stage
❤LOL celebrity disco
❤Sessions Stage
❤Rides
❤Mcflurry Ice Cream Van
❤Stalls
❤Other various food vans
                                                          
There were so many freebies given away with big brands such as Cadbury's, McDonald, 17 make up, Sharpie, Fresh skin, Claire, Storm modeling agents, Lol energy drink and Vodafone. We got a free pair of sunglasses from Vodafone and Mcflurry from the van. 
We decided to stay by the main stage the whole day which was actually on the sand unlike the other attractions as thats where the main acts would be preforming. The line up last year was:
The Wanted
Tulisa
Cover drive
Stooshe
Wretch 32
Alexandra Burke
Conor Maynard
Taio Cruz
DJ fresh 
Rita Ora
Professor Green
Marina and the Diamonds
Skepta
Lawson
Dappy
Labrinth
Rizzle Kicks

Im not a fan of EVERY one of those artists but the atmosphere was great! I basically sang along to every song even if I didn't like the artist. We weren't close to the stage, people had been camping out to get there but we could see the artists from where we were standing although when it came to taking photos I decided to play it safe and take photos from the two big screens hanging down on each side of the stage. The sessions stage was on the grass bank and is a smaller stage for upcoming artist. Unlike the main stage they do not play games with the crowds. I did manage to catch one act on the sessions stage that day and it was the Midnight Beast. I love them so much and i was so happy i managed to get over there in time. The other acts on the sessions stage were:

Maverick Sabre
Lonsdale Boys club
Tyler James
Josh Osho
Devlin
Esmee Denters
Little mix
The Enemy
The midnight beast





I had no idea what the 'Lol celebrity disco' was, so we didn't bother going to explore when the artists had finished. I found out on the train home it was a small stage where you got to meet a few celebrities. I cant express how disappointed I didn't go in, especially when i found out the cast of Made in Chelsea were there, Lawson, Conor Maynard and also Professor Green.  Over all I had one of the best days of my life and we met some really funny people while we were there.
