This Saturday 4 April sees the fabulous 6th annual Dock of the Bay Festival roll its way into Shabby Meadow, Glasson Dock and Glasson Dock Village Hall  from noon ’til midnight.

So leave your home and you won’t be wastin’ time and you can’t be lonesome (see what I did there?) and you’re likely to be dancin’ as well as sittin’ – the festival features an impressive packed line-up on the fabulous Melodrome Stage in the meadow where you’ll also find the tasty Sound Bites Cafe.
