One not to miss 🔥 ⬇️

We’ve got a cracking day of live music to look forward to on our Main Stage on Sunday 3rd May.

We start off with Rock Choir North East • Choirs led by Rob Slater Rock on our main stage.

Described as the world’s largest contemporary choir, Rock Choir deliver stunning vocal arrangements that are sure to get people dancing and singing along.

Following we have an hour of pure 60s nostalgia with The Fabs

A first time appearance at the Festival for The Fabs! Two Scousers and a Geordie who’ll be onstage ‘pounding out the big beat’ of The Cavern Club’s ‘beat’ groups of the 1960s. It’s guitar, bass, drums and three great vocalists that will take you back to the Cavern’s ‘merseymania’ days!

We are lucky to have the amazing acoustic duo Claypath Music!

Claypath are usually an acoustic duo featuring Chris Cowan and Phil Richardson but this time they are back with a full band!
Based in the North East of England, they are respected for their high quality, live performances at venues throughout the UK.

Did anyone say the 80’s? Well an hour of pure 80’s classics from The Reflex 80s Band will get the party started!

Tight harmonies, high energy, and an outstanding stage presence all come together to recreate the wonderful times of the 1980s.

Who didn’t love a drive time album?

The VCR are a powerhouse trio from the North East performing hand-picked ‘Vintage, Classic & Rare’ tracks from music’s most iconic artists, including:

Phil Collins, Queen, Fleetwood Mac, Toto, Eric Carmen, Janis Joplin, Tears For Fears, Cyndi Lauper, Tina Tuner, Heart and many more.

Headlining we have one of the best in the business!

V12 Band was founded by Journey South”s Carl Pemberton.�This high-energy three-piece band knows exactly how to ignite a crowd. They deliver hit after hit with unstoppable enthusiasm. �From timeless classics to modern favourites, their lively performances keep the dance floor packed and the party going all night

Don’t miss out on a full day of cracking music!
