With the pub's music festivals usually taking place in May and August/September. these events have helped to build on the pub's success.

Priding themselves on "providing something for everyone", the organisers say that all previous festivals have sold out in Moss Bank as customers come from far and wide to attend the event.

With food and drinks on sale throughout the day, Ian says that the team is hoping for their "best ever festival to date".

This year's line-up consists of Jess Cosy, The Mannequins, Alex Hilditch, Shakemaker, and headliners 'The Beatles For Sale'.
