A POPULAR charity festival is returning to Bromsgrove for its seventh year.

Orchardfest was set up in 2016 and organised by Dan Morgan, a supporter of Primrose Hospice.

It was started as an idea by Dave’s late wife Trish who said it would be great to hold a music event on the Puddle Wharf Farm.

Dave and his family decided to run the event in her memory, and it has gone from strength to strength since.

Last year alone they raised over £26,000 for Primrose Hospice & Family Support Centre.

Dave Morgan, event organiser said: “We are so looking forward to Orchard Fest 2023.

"As always it is a great opportunity for us to showcase up-and-coming local talented musicians, as well as inviting back some firm favourites.

“The feedback over the years has been fantastic with people really enjoying the relaxed family-friendly setting, which is exactly what I set out to achieve.

"It has become an anticipated diary date for many to catch up with loved ones, family and friends whilst raising vital funds for Primrose.

“We’re hoping for this year to be the biggest attended yet, so if you haven’t got your tickets yet, what are you waiting for?”
