AROUND a thousand people turned out for Middlewich Cricket Club’s inaugural Fiesta on the Field – and organisers have announced it will return next year.
The two-day event proved to be a success with vital funds raised.
Crowds were treated to a fun-filled family weekend with local bands, 'Good for Gordon’, ‘Never Trust A Folkie’, ‘The Mallisons’ and ‘AD Cooke’ on Saturday, plus the showing of ‘The Greatest Showman’ and the World Cup Final on a 12 square metre screen on Sunday.
Dave Parry, chairman of Middlewich Cricket Club, said: "We are completely overwhelmed by how our fundraising event 'Fiesta on the Field' was received.
“It was such a fun-filled weekend enjoyed by all ages and helped us raise much needed funds for the club, which will go towards junior cricket and upkeep of the ground and clubhouse, and we are extremely grateful.
“We would also like to thank the fantastic array of sponsors and vendors without whom the event could not have been so successful. We couldn’t have done it without the volunteers either - they worked so hard to plan to run the event.”
The Beer Festival also showcased a wide selection of local and national ales and ciders, topped off by a Prosecco and gin bar, complemented by a selection of foods from local vendors.
