    • Trivia
      Parts of the film were filmed at Leeds Festival 2017 with actual festival goers being used as extras in the large crowd scenes.
    • Goofs
      In Nick's bedroom just before he and Shane leave for the festival, there is a box visible on a shelf with the words 'Global Puzzle.' A few seconds later this has been replaced by a different, shallower box with the title 'Impossipuzzle'.
    • Quotes

      Brother David: Are you insane?

      Amy: Glass houses, mate. You fucked a goat!

    • Alternate versions
      For the UK release, the distributor removed three sequences of crude and sexual behavior to obtain a 15 classification following advice from the BBFC that the uncut version would likely receive an 18 classification. An uncut version was available.

    Poor day at the festival
    Expected more from the inbetweeners crew but was bitterly disappointed. Film was more like a documentary than a comedy. Characters were not plausible. Weakest film I have seen in a long time. Better luck next time.
