What large concert events have you attended? Would you like to go a big concert event? Why/Why not?
You are members of a local resident´s group in the village of Torbury. The village has a population of 4,000 and is in quiet countryside, but is within easy reach of major airports and railway stations. A concert promoter wants to run a three-day music festival on the outskirts of their village and has sent a promotional poster to give residents an idea of the proposed event. They need to decide whether their village will host the festival or not. Explain that this is still a proposal, so they can suggest changes to how the festival is organized.
