Now celebrating its 5th year, CRANFEST 25 is back — and more vibrant than ever!
With around 25 bands taking to the stage across a wide range of genres, this year’s
festival promises something for everyone, whatever your age or musical taste.
Set across multiple venues around the High Street, the festival runs from Friday 5th
to Saturday 6th September. Best of all, entry is completely free — yes, even the
parking!
Experience a range of bands across the stages, ranging in genres, from folk, to rock,
alternative and blues and soul. Among the Friday bands you will see and experience
sounds from The Marching SKAletons, a horn led Day of the Dead group bringing a
mix of ska - and ska versions of the hits! Not to be missed.
This year’s line up includes: Salsadelic, King Reverend, Paul McClure, Bity Booker,
Suncharmer, Mike Wilton, Electric Hoarse, Unit 48, Samual Ashton and the Instincts,
The Munchweeds, Calico Thieves, The Naomi Bedford Band and so many other
bands over the weekend too numerous to mention.
And to keep you dancing even longer, there will be a delectable range of street
food on offer — the perfect fuel for a weekend of live music and celebration.
This community-driven festival is funded entirely by local donations and
sponsorship, with every pound raised helping to ensure the festival continues to
return year on year. To support CRANFEST and keep the music alive, festivalgoers
are encouraged to contribute via their crowdfunding page:
Join in for two days filled with amazing live music, community spirit, and festival fun.
