It’s the festival for everybody – with acts ranging from Paul Young and the Happy Mondays, to Tom Lumley and Andy and the Odd Socks, the family event at Jimmy’s Farm provided the perfect opportunity for little ones to experience live music for the first time – while keeping the grown ups happy.

To top it all off, crowds enjoyed perfect festival weather as the sun shone down on the annual celebration of music and food in Wherstead.
