Long term readers will remember the annual music and fun festival that’s taken place on the smallholding just off the A5 at Newtown, Brownhills, now renamed and revitalised as A5 Live.

This year the music, entertainment and fun returns to the smallholding just off the A5 Watling Street at Newtown, Brownhills, and takes place all this weekend from today, Friday 2nd to Sunday 4th August 2019, and tickets are still available but selling fast!

It promises to be the biggest and best A5 Live yet!

Tickets range in price from a fiver to just £25 for the whole weekend which is smashing value I think you’ll agree.
