The event, located on the edge of the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire in the UK sparked complaints among residents who found people without tickets in their garden, The Sun reports.

The organisers describe the festival as a lifestyle event and this year it will feature live music, DJs and what every party needs jelly wrestling. A three-day couples ticket costs 180 ($346) and the same ticket costs $288 for single men who have to be vetted, while single ladies are charged $192. People will be able to take part in a photo grotto which allows up to 10 people in at once.

The website suggests branded piccies can be fun, or just plain naughty! Let your imagination run wild for that special memento to cherish. Revellers can also stay in a $1211 fixed hotel style room with twin, box-spring beds and electricity.

Otherwise people can pitch up a tent, bring a camper van or hire bell tents which boast an ambient atmosphere with fairy lights, a memory foam mattress and rugs. Ticket holders are warned they could be thrown out if they divulge the location to the media, fail to cover up their bottom halves in public areas or if they romp in the hot tub. Residents of Flaxley, located 16km from Gloucester, are divided over the theme of the festival with many claiming they should be warned about the nature of it.

Speaking about last years event one person said: It was quite a shock when we went down to the gates on Thursday night to ask them to keep the music down. Lets just say when we saw a banner with the words three is the magic number and a variety of interesting images we knew this wasnt just your usual music festival. None of the statutory consultees, police, licensing or environmental health, raised any objections to the festival being held in the quiet, unspoilt rural area.

Colin Evers, chairman of the parish council, said: There was some discussion last year but Im not aware of anyone making a written protest and, like all these things, unless its in writing, its ignored. If people have concerns, they need to put it in writing to the district council because its no good just making oral protestations. A festival supporter described the coverage as Victorian moralising and said there were only two registered complaints from thousands of residents locally.

He said: The online forums were awash with locals who were amazed how tidy the site was, no drugs, litter or drunkenness, local pubs and businesses reporting a busy weekend of trade, and local council officers and local police not only pre-approved but visited the site and confirmed all was totally in order. The ticketing section of the Swingfields website says there will be 700 people and added: 2016 will learn all the lessons from the previous events and set a new standard, providing a three-day event, in the Gloucestershire countryside, offering far reaching magnificent views from a venue chosen for its tranquillity and privacy. Our professional security team will further expand this year to include marshalling and pitch locations to ensure the site provides the very best facilities and organisation.

More indoor areas, more play zones, special surprise entertainment, hot tubs, and many many more yet to be announced will delight those attending. Critics say locals should be given a say about whether such an event should be allowed to be held on the doorstep of a sleepy village full of young families. One resident added: Basically unless you do the same as Michael Eavis and put up 15ft (4.

5m) walls like the Glastonbury Festival you cannot guarantee privacy. Im broad-minded but I do think it should either be kept behind closed doors. I dont like the way they do it without asking local people in the area.

I know they dont allow nudity in public areas but tents arent very private and I still dont think many people would be happy knowing what is going on in their doorstep. This story originally appeared on The Sun.
