And while the pandemic means we will miss them this year, it won’t stop us from reminiscing on these super scenes from years gone by.
Were you in the picture at these festivals at Cliff Park, Thompson Park, Sunniside Gardens, or Ashbrooke?
You got to enjoy top music under blue skies while relaxing with pals.
Let’s take a wander down Memory Lane and see how many of these photos bring back happy memories.
