Bishop’s Castle’s legendary one day music festival, Party in the Park, is back on Saturday 22 July 2023 in the town’s playing fields.
This will be the thirteenth year of Party in the Park and promises another day of great music. For 10 years, the event was organised by the ‘About Music Project’, giving a stage to the town’s young bands, alongside recognised acts.
Now, those young bands have children of their own and are among the members of the current organising committee, Centre Stage, who took over in 2020.
“We have a commitment to showcasing new bands”, said music programme (and still member of one of those young bands) Jake Putterill-Evans, “and we are programming young bands from Bishop’s Castle Open Mic at the Underground – a really successful monthly event where young people can come and play or sing music or support their friends.”
Information about programmed bands will be released soon – would-be attenders or volunteers are asked to like the Centre Stage Facebook page.
