Went yesterday, was great but could have had less big gaps between acts on the big stage. About 2 hours or something between people playing. Sure today will run a bit smoother tho.

Yeah it was great. Bands all really good (Newen Afrobeat especially) and great vibes. Always see loads of people you know around too. Love Oye.

We've just been over. I don't usually bother as the music is not my kind of stuff, but there's a nice atmosphere there at the moment. The weather's picked up too, and is more fitting with the occasion.

Seems like everyone's having a good time. 😎🌞

LFC foundation were there earlier too. Playing football with the young kids.

I went on Saturday for the start of the afternoon, got some Senegalese food an relaxed, was really good.

One thing I would like to ask, there was an Italian bakery stall there which we took some Canoli and Focaccia - for anyone else who want, do you know what the name of the bakery was, it was delicious so I would like to know for future reference.

We went for a walk and my lad bought me a very early fathers day pint early in the afternoon. It was cold at the time. It was quiet but I sensed it was going to be a nice, fun afternoon and evening. I was made up when the weather really brightened later on.
We participated in a survey to keep it free. It's boss, they've wrecked LIMF so this may be the last chance of having a lovely big free out door event in the city.

We look out over the site and this morning it was grey with some drizzle. But yes, the afternoon and evening were lovely. The good atmosphere seemed to remain throughout. Normally we see a fair bit of trouble at these events, but today seemed fine.

There was a great mix of people. Liverpool shirts everywhere too. 😊

It's nice that your son bought you a Father's Day pint. 🍻

I never noticed the Italian bakery stall, but Mrs Spion did. Unfortunately, she can't recall the name of it.

I did a bit of digging online and saw something from La Focaccia Bakery saying they'd be at the festival this weekend. They are based in Leeds, but cater at festivals etc.

Their website:

That's all I could come up with I'm afraid. Hope it helps.
