Bingley Music Live
Now in its 11th year, Bingley Music Live has gained a reputation as one of the best small festivals in the country. It returns on 1st September when Welsh legends Manic Street Preachers take centre stage and Kaiser Chiefs headline the day after. It’s not all music though, as there are plenty of food stalls and activities for the kids at the festival’s traditional home of Myrtle Park to keep the whole family happy.

The festival introduced camping for the first time last year at the nearby Bradford & Bingley Sports Club and will be returning once again for those who want to turn the festival into mini-holiday.

TribFest
TribFest, Yorkshire’s biggest tribute band festival is celebrating 10 years entertaining families and friends at Sledmere House in Driffield. Last year, the festival booked 56 tribute acts to play across six stages, as well as a host of entertainment to satisfy the little ones too within the TribFest Kidzone.

The festival has been nominated in the UK Festival Awards in the Best Small Festival and Best Family Festival categories in recent years, and this year’s event – which sees the likes of David Bowie, ACDC, Elvis Presley and Tina Turner take to the stage (well, sort of!) – will kick off the anniversary celebrations from 17th August.
