    A day of live music with beer provided by local businesses including Major Tom’s Social, Harrogate Brewing Co and Turning Point, the event proved a popular sell-out.

    The line-up was packed with local bands, solo acts and DJs.

    Highlights included sets by Hell Fire Jack, Biz Denton, Lence, DJ Rory Hoy, DJ Trev, Oscilantern, Chris Fidler of Shindig DJs, Graham Chalmers of the Harrogate Advertiser, Nirvana Band, Hot Sauce, Dave Colston and Lobo.
