Fabulous 👏🏻

Wow!!! What can I say.....How we managed to raise that amount this year is totally mind blowing 🤯

It was a bit of a wet one but that certainly didn't stop you 🌧☔️🎉

I will say this.....It is not just about live music and festival fun it's about community, our community 💜💚

People queued in the rain waiting for the gates to open
I saw kids gadget-free playing in muddy puddles
I watched 3 generations of families partying together
Teens dancing and singing in the mosh pit
An 18th birthday and Hen do celebration
All wrapped up with crowd wide AY-OHS from Queen Tribute Band - Queen Greatest Hits to top it all off 🎤
And as you were leaving I overheard a young girl say to her Dad "thank you for taking her she had the best day ever".

From our tireless staff and crew to the artists, volunteers, bars and food vendors, fairground rides, traders and every one of you G-Festers - THANK YOU Seeing your smiling faces singing and dancing in the rain makes all the effort and hard work totally worth it.

Here's to the memories we've made, the magic we'll create again next year and to Dad ❤️✨️

Congratulations to the GFest team on another fabulous event this year 👏🏼 From one community event to another, we know how much hard work goes on behind the scenes to make the day a success and you guys have smashed it out of the park again! Even the weather didn’t dampen the day, as the fun and music played on. Well done gang, you did Garforth proud 👏🏼
