FarmTrax Music Festival 2024, Farmer Copleys

Somehow in the nine years that I have lived in Yorkshire, I have never come across Farmer Copleys until this past year, possibly due to now having two young children. I now know that Farmer Copleys is an amazing place to visit if you want to go strawberry/pumpkin picking. It is said that they grow over 250’000 pumpkins a year!! Crikey!

Amongst all of this they also seem to be able to host some fantastic events and music festivals throughout the year.

On Saturday 27th July I was able to help photograph their FarmTrax Tribute Act Music Festival. Starting at 12 and finishing at 9, the music, food and drink certainly brought families and friends to the venue! What a treat it was.

Here are some photos from the event.

Barnsley Pride 2024, Smashby

Barnsley Pride, 2024!

What a day!! What a great day!

As you know I had the privilege of being one of the photographers for Barnsley's Pride festival Saturday just gone.

The day was full of fun and love for all. One of the very talented acts I photographed in the late afternoon was Smashby

You could see how much love was present from both Smashby and the fans. A joy to watch.
