More than 4,000 people attended the gig last year, up from 2,500 for the inaugural event in 2022.

Councillor Matthew Farnworth said, “What an incredible line-up! Music in the Park has gone from strength to strength since our first event in 2022.

“It was amazing to see thousands of people come along to Worden Park this year and I can’t wait to see even more people enjoy themselves at one of South Ribble’s flagship events next year”.
