Deva Fest, o festival favorito do noroeste, concluiu o quarto ano do fim de semana passado com suas maiores multidões até o momento. Realizado de 8 a 11 de agosto nos impressionantes jardins do castelo de Cholmondeley, o festival recebeu quase 20.000 convidados no fim de semana que desfrutaram de uma formação de música, comédia e entretenimento.

This year’s festival was headlined by iconic musical acts The Coral, The Human League e Cena de cores oceânicas que todos subiram ao palco principal e apresentaram performances inesquecíveis às maiores multidões de todos os tempos do festival. Os centenas de atos se apresentaram nas 5 etapas do festival ao longo dos 4 dias, vendo tudo, desde comédia de stand -up, coros locais e um pitstop do EastEnders Shaun Williamson, que trouxe seu popular show de Barrioke no domingo, que o viu dueto com participantes festivais em alguns clássicos de karaokê.
Festival-frekers também se entregou a uma variedade de delícias culinárias com barracas de comida mais uma vez lideradas pelo Chester Business Artezzan, whilst the 4 bars were manned by the team at iKO. Their offerings, which included a mix of gourmet street food and drinks including craft beer courtesy of Vocation Brewery, Brothers Cider and ThinK Wine , were a hit among attendees, with sell outs across the board.
Reflecting on the success of this year’s event, Deva Fest organiser Phil Marston said, “We are absolutely thrilled with how Deva Fest 2024 has turned out and the feedback we received so far. The atmosphere was electric and it was wonderful to see so many families, friends and festival lovers coming together to enjoy everything we had on offer. Each year, our goal is to create a festival that not only showcases top talent but also fosters a real sense of community and I think we’ve truly achieved that. We’re already looking ahead to 2025 and we can’t wait to announce what we’ve got in store.”
Looking ahead, the organisers have announced that Deva Fest will return to Cholmondeley Castle from 7th – 10th August 2025, with those wanting to be the first to know encouraged to sign up on the festivals website here: https: //shorturl.at/mcnzq. Downtown in Business
