Organisers of Lancashire’s longest-running independent festival have announced the line up for their forthcoming family-friendly event.

Crafty Vintage will take place over the May Spring Bank Holiday weekend at Hoghton Tower.

The festival kicks off on Saturday 29 May with the first of three family shows performed by local theatre company Just Imagine UK.

Guests can venture to Neverland with Peter Pan and Tink as they go against the tick-tock clock on a quest to defeat Hook.

The Greatest Disco in the World is set to get people boogying as The Love Train rolls into the historic grounds. The interactive show will occupy the arena stage on the Saturday afternoon with an A to Z of Disco favourites.

Set to headline the main stage on Sunday 31 May are Crazy P – Soundsystem with their dance music show.

On Bank Holiday Monday, Mansford’s Comedy Club will present a selection of comedians from the UK touring circuit, including Steve Royle, Ignacio Lopez, Martin Mor, Matt Reed and MC Hammersmith.
