We are so lucky to have historic venues like Middleport Pottery right on our doorstep.
These places are full of life, stories, and heritage, and it’s incredible to see them brought to life through events like this.
The festival was completely free to attend, and it reminded us how fortunate we are to have so many free events happening across the city throughout the year.They don’t just happen on their own.
These brilliant days out are made possible by the hard work of passionate organisers, volunteers, and local makers who put their heart and soul into bringing people together.
Whether it's music, food, crafts, heritage or community spirit, events like this give us a chance to slow down, connect, and celebrate where we live.
We should never take that for granted. Here’s to supporting our local venues and the people who make them shine.
