BANK holiday weekend sees the return of Warrington Music Festival.
And this year it is even bigger with live music at two stages in the town centre - all for free.
The ticketless, open-air event will take place at Golden Square’s Old Market Place on Saturday, May 25, shining a spotlight on new and emerging indie rock talent from across the region.
And new for 2024 is a second stage at Time Square which will showcase a more diverse range of artists and music genres, aimed at bringing a wider audience to the popular annual event.
Kicking off at midday, there will be live music throughout the day culminating in a headline performance by The Ambersons at Golden Square.
So while Neighbourhood may be taking a break for a year, Warrington Music Festival is the perfect excuse to get out as see live music for free.
Warrington Music Festival was founded in 2007 and is organised by Steve Oates, from music development company Score Creative, and Christian Persoglio, from Culture Warrington, together with Golden Square shopping centre.
“It’s great to see so many bands and musicians, either from Warrington or with strong ties to Warrington, coming together again in 2024 for this brilliant town centre event,” said Steve.
“The Warrington Music Festival is all about community building and it’s a great opportunity for the people of Warrington to come out and see and hear for themselves what an amazing pool of talent we have in our midst.”
