The Bravo Show Arvostelua 154

The show was outstanding. The horses, riders and other entertainers were totally brilliant. Food and hospitality were first class. Thanks to everyone who contributed, those behind the scenes and those front of stage. I highly recommend the Bravo show for a thoroughly wonderful day out.

Fantastic show. My family and I came to see the Christmas show, and we are still talking about it. So much so, we rebooked for the Easter show, which we attended yesterday. Still as good and the best live entertainment we have seen in many, many years.
Keep up the good work.

What a wonderful show, emotional and truly beautiful. All staff were kind and the riders in the show were top quality. Horses looked relaxed and well cared. Defiantly worth a visit.

I attended the Mother’s Day Bravo show with my family and paid a lot of money to attend! £45 a ticket!
We spent around £250 for us to attend. For that price I was expecting a world class show which was exciting, well planned and value for money.
What we actually got was a horse version of a child’s school play. It was awful.
I have seen a lot of shows of all different types and I can say I have never seen a show so bad and boring in my life. It was repetitive, the story line and story telling made no sense, and I and my family just wished it would end after about 5 mins from it starting.
I was expecting a really good day out with the family and unfortunately it was the worst show we have ever seen. Completely ruined our Mother’s Day family day out. Looking around at people near us their faces looked as bored as we were. A girl infront of us had her fingers in her ears throughout cos of the singing.
I’m sorry to write this review as I don’t like complaining and know a lot of hard work goes into this type of show but for the price it was nowhere near good enough. It is like no one there has a clue how to make an entertaining show and maybe you should watch your own show and ask if the price you charge is acceptable. I would be embarrassed to charge between £45-£90 a ticket. To start the show should be exciting music, lights and have all the horses galloping around the arena making everyone excited for the show but instead you went for a man singing ‘sweet Caroline’ for 10 mins. it was all a bit odd! I would think between £10-£20 would be more reasonable for the show I saw. Tickets go up to £90 pp!!!!
I have read other reviews on trust pilot who also agree with me online, check them out.
I don’t want another family to spend their hard earned money on this show. If this review stops just one family wasting their money it’s worth it.
I have emailed in before writing this but no reply from the manager/owner in nearly 3 weeks even after chasing up a few times. I don’t think they care or want to hear bad things.
I was very disappointed.
Spend your money elsewhere on a good for value day out. Avoid!
…
Thank you for your time to finally reply! As this seems to be the only way to get a reply. After still ignoring my emails this was the only choice I had left.
The fact you said you would not be taking my comments on board and still continue to rip people off with them watching this garbage shows exactly what person and the type of operation you are running. Have you also read the other bad reviews on here? Not going to take those comments on board also yeah? I can only think the good reviews are done by yourself, staff or family, because I can not see anyone actually taking the time to write a good review about this show. I didn’t even mention the rude staff at the cafe or hearing a man next to me saying ‘I’m going to hang myself’ as he walked out half way through and didn’t come back. You really do need to send out a form to everyone who comes to get a proper feedback or you won’t have a show very soon, the fact you can’t sell these shows out and still advertising them the day before says a lot. You can only sell tickets if it’s a £45-90 show which it is not. The war scene was more comical than moving, and the London agent you mention… can’t be a talent agent!
Please look at your other bad reviews and take them on board, or those horse will suffer when you close down.

Was beautiful 😍

What a amazing show for the whole family! What I loved was that you could tell the riders and horses had an amazing partnership together. The music was brilliant too and had my son clapping away at times. My daughter loved seeing all the horses big and small. My favourite was watching the beautiful grey horse moving calmly in the ocean, and the war scene was fab too. The mini shopping area had some lovely unique gifts. Would definately come back again.

Amazing🥰 my mum took me on the first one of the year

My mum took me and my daughter to see Bravo on 13th December as a birthday treat. What an amazing time we had from start to finish. The show was fantastic and my friend Steven Merchant was a huge star in the show. The icing on the cake was getting to watch from the new VIP area and experience the wonderful hospitality. I would highly recommend.

What a fantastic day we had , great set up and yard.

People friendly, very helpful ,in particular the the lovely lady in red who narrated the show.
Loved the screen explaining who,experience and what was involved on the day.
horses involved well looked after and happy whilst performing, in fact very chilled, seating was perfect ,a few stalls selling bits ,.
I thought it fabulous that all ages were involved, young children from the yard ,it took me back to when I was a youngster and waiting back stage with two shetland ponys waiting to go in stage in the Christmas pantomime and the Christmas Dunhill show us oldies would remember.

Meeting all those that took part at the end including the horses still a treat at my age and too finish off ,Christmas presents for the children from santas little elves at the very end.

Definitely worth the day out.

The only issue for me was the full seat price for children which I felt should have been less then the adults

Wonderful Christmas show - we went with 3 generations and everyone enjoyed it ! Wonderful music and a great atmosphere - the horses and riders were fabulous. Thank you !

Had a great family visit to Bravo, all ages enjoyed it.
Beautiful horses and talented riders. The music and lights so well done, the horses are so well trained to accompany.
Really good Christmas fun, thank you.

how odd, no poor reviews listed pn the bravo website. well here's one. easily the worst show I have ever seen. Overly long narrated storyline that actually goes nowhere!Bravo appears in the first scene never to beseen again. Talented and skilfull riders? Hardly able to judge after a few gentle trots around the sand school. Must have missed the stunts. Shame i didn't miss all of it . My daughter would have been £80 odd pounds better off and I would have had a Xmas present to remember.

As a regular rider, I took my family to this midday show hoping it would be inspiring. Unfortunately, we all found it repetitive and fairly basic.

The storyline was long and often confusing. Much of the show relied heavily on narration with no horses on stage, and the central storyline — a Shetland pony becoming a black, dancing stallion — didn’t make sense. A clearer narrative, such as including a black foal, would have made it far easier to follow, particularly for children.

Organisation was poor. Despite having an email confirming I paid in June, the ticket was not under my name, causing unnecessary stress before the show even started.

The venue felt oversubscribed, with very crowded seating and little room to move without disturbing others. There was no space to browse the stalls, and the interval stretched to around 40 minutes due to long, poorly managed toilet queues and the difficulty of getting people back to their seats.

The additional acts were underwhelming. The motorcyclist segment involved one young rider performing basic wheelies, and the gymnastics act consisted of simple hoop work — neither felt worthy of the ticket price.

When the horses were actually out, the riding and horsemanship were very good and clearly the highlight. However, the show would have benefited from far more focus on the horses and riders during the narration, or by significantly reducing the storytelling in favour of action and performance. The marketing made the show appear far more impressive than it actually was.

At £10–£15 this would have felt more acceptable, but at up to £48 per ticket it was shocking value for money. The Father Christmas gifts also felt unnecessary, adding to plastic waste rather than genuinely improving the experience.

Beautiful
Heart wrenching
Magical

Fantastic show , beautifully presented, will come again to see all the beautiful horses and a big Thankyou to Gary and Alan for making the afternoon extra fun

What a lovely Christmas Day out ! Beautiful horses and riders -clearly a strong bond between horse and rider from these world class riders with some phenomenal skills on display. All very well organised in a friendly family atmosphere. Special shout out to the narrator Belle who did an amazing job !

Brilliant show. Horses are stunning and all round great start to the Christmas season. Also loved the meet and greet at the end. All the riders were so friendly and answered questions. Lovely atmosphere. 100% would go again.

Excellent day out and beautiful horses. My eight year old horse mad little girl was in awe and so was mummy! Highly recommended and we will definitely be coming back x

Outstanding show wonderful

I was very disappointed with the show last weekend, it was definitely not a “stunt” show ! Very basic, horses were not schooled well, being a vet myself I was very worried about the welfare as at least 2 of the horses were lame. My children were bored and total waste of money. Maybe it’s a show for uneducated people whom enjoy horses but definitely not a high standard equestrian show. The riders in the show were VERY basic level riders.

Don’t waste your money ! Great marketing (I was fooled)
