THE NEWS FEST On Saturday 21st of July the Ynysangharad Park opened its gates to thousands of music fans for the 5th annual ‘Ponty’s Big Weekend’. The sun welcomed eager fans into the park to the sound of the opening act; X Factor’s John Adams. Following John on the huge line-up was Ladies Love A Superhero, Lucie Jones, Lilygreen and Maguire, Angel, Diana Vickers, Cover Drive and headliner; Olly Murs. All artists were welcomed by screams from the excitable crowd. The night’s headliner ‘Olly Murs’ performed a stunning set jam packed full of crowd pleasing hits. Overall, the day was a fantastic experience for all involved and I thoroughly recommend you all check out next year’s event.
