Beyond Radio was delighted once again to be part of the annual Barefest Festival in Morecambe.

The event on Saturday saw the Bare community come together to celebrate the village.

Festivities were centred around Princes Crescent and Bare Lane with live music, stalls and family activities.

A parade through the streets of Bare was followed by the inauguration of the Lord Mayor of the village.

For the third year in a row, village butcher Chris Mount was elected Lord Mayor, with Councillor Martin Bottoms as his deputy.

Performances included The Mizzen Crew sea shanty singers, the St Mary's School Choir, Baybeat street band, the Happy Feet dancers, and Salsa XS who led salsa dancing on Princes Crescent.

Beyond Radio's Greg Lambert provided announcements, with music from Luke Edmondson, and support from Roy Ward and George Walmsley.

The event is organised by Bare Community Association.

Beyond Radio's Gibson Freedman was out and about speaking to some of the people at Barefest.
