Ryan Crow, of Crow Events which organises The Hoppings, expressed his delight at bring back live music to the funfair after it proved to be popular in previous years.

He said: “It’s not only an added dimension to the whole event but it also gives a fantastic platform for local talent to showcase their musical skills.

“It’s a great opportunity for them to perform before a large, live audience and for our visitors it is just another reason to visit.”
