Folk festival brings successful end to month of Black Country celebrations
The final event of a month of Black Country celebration brought catchy tunes and good vibes to a country park.
The Black Country Folk Festival was the final act of a month celebrating the region's culture, history and tradition and brought hundreds of fans of music to Himley Hall to hear the best of the local and national folk scene and enjoy a day out.
Held over two days on Saturday and Sunday on the grounds of Himley Hall, the festival featured two stages called the Fixed Wheel Main Stage and smaller Katie Fitzgerald's Stage, as well as a large selection of food options, from traditional favourites such as burgers and chips to vegan options.
There was also a number of fully stocked bars, as well as softer options, and treats such as cotton candy and sweets for the youngsters attending the festival.
It was a chance for families to come together and listen to some of the best in the folk scene, from the Jess Silk Trio to Man the Lifeboats and Atilla the Stockbroker, as well as local groups and performers such as Eddy Morten and The Empty Can.
