The sun shone for most of the two-day event which saw many festival goers taking a step back to the 80s with neon coloured clothing and or fancy dress costume of TV characters from the era.

The weekend was not just about who was performing on the main stage, but an event including other exciting entertainment such as the silent disco, funfair rides, kid-zone with entertainment for the little Rewinders, shops & stalls for jewellery, t-shirts, food and drink. 

Fans also got a chance to see TV presenter, Jenny Powell, on stage was at the two-day event
