Expanding for the first time to a three day event, the tiny festival, which ran for two years at the Aspinall Arms, near Clitheroe, has moved to a secluded new site at Stephen Park, in the Gisburn Forest, near Slaidburn.

And this year, they will be providing live music and entertainment over three stages from this evening until Sunday.
