Back to the 80’s with the Bramhall Festival

Thousands of people gathered in Bramhall Village on Saturday 24^th June for this year’s Bramhall Festival organised by Bramhall Together Trust

Imagine FM hosted the event with brilliant MC Dave de Grey, and the stage entertainment included 80’s legends Hazell Dean and Kelly Wilde, 80’s themed pop quizzes and plenty of audience participation and sing-a-longs.

The annual festival is one of a number of community events held each year in Bramhall Village to bring together the local community and to support local businesses.

This years Festival sponsors were Chilli Banana, Mercato Italiano  Yardbird  & Vernon Building Society and supported by our local councillors and MP

This year’s Festival highlights were:

• * The Maker’s Market – a popular craft market with high quality crafts, food, jewellery and plants
• * A new host for this year – Dave de Grey who entertained the crowd from the Imagine FM stage
• * Visit from the Mayor of Stockport – Cllr Linda Weekes Holt
• * 80’s pop legends Hazell Dean & Kelly Wilde who topped a great line up on the stage
• * In The Village Square  was the ever popular Vinyl market, craft stalls, local community stalls and live entertainment
• * 80s fancy dress competition 

To create the street party atmosphere, Bramhall Lane South was closed throughout the day and many traders joined in with food sampling, pop up bars and street food, and festival hair braiding.

Chairman of Bramhall Together Trust, Roger Prydderch commented,

“It’s great to see so many people out and about in Bramhall and having a great family day out. This year’s event had a real street party atmosphere, helped by the road closure, street food, pop up bars, live entertainment and high quality market stalls.”
