This year was a family focused event with activities for children including zorbing, face painting and temporary tattoos. And for local big-wigs, there was even a VIP area called the Groove Garden, well placed by the stage and hosted by Saxe Coburg.
Music came from a large and varied line up including local party band BoMo Swing, Si Genaro, The Guns of Navarone and the Mother Ukers with their ukulele versions of pop and rock classics, headlining was Gary Stringer of Reef fame.
The popular event helped raise money for the chosen charity, Diverse Abilities Plus.
