The team behind Cheshire's Blackthorn Festival have confirmed that 2018's event will be held between Friday 20th and Sunday 22nd July.
Although the line up is yet to be announced for next year, this year's event saw the likes of indie legends Reef, Lightning Seeds and Space take to the stage (read our interview with Space here). Joining them was a raft of sought after up and coming names from the north's burgeoning music scene, including the likes of Larkins, Stillia and Satyr Play.
Alongside the musical attractions, Blackthorn Festival also boasts a huge selection of refreshment stalls from local vendors, all testament to nearby Manchester's thriving food industry.
