    The feast of live music, not to forget food and drink, follows hot on the heels of the successful Henshaws Beer Festival which saw 850 people enjoy a full weekend of live music at the arts and crafts centre at Bond End – alongside a smorgasbord of food and drink helping to raise more than £12,500 to support people living with sight loss and other disabilities.

    Bed Fest kicks off at noon and run until 11pm, with wood fired pizzas, loaded fries and sweet treats, plus pop-up Mexican street food thanks to Paradise Tap & Taco.

    Turning Point and Harrogate Brewery will be serving a top range of refreshing beers, alongside an array of gins, wine, fizz, cider and soft drinks for the kids.
