The Wolverhampton Mayors Fest is an annual fundraising music festival presented by Rockers Through the Ages and dedicated to supporting the Lord Mayors sponsored charities, this year’s being Age UK Wolverhampton, Samaritans Wolverhampton and Beacon. The festival event took place from April 4th to 6th, with the Giffard Arms hosting two days, Friday and Sunday and KK’s Steel Mill the main event on the Saturday. MMH Radio was privileged to be able to attend the Saturday and Sunday events with all the action captured in pictures. The main stage at KK’s hosted seven bands, The Soul Revival, White Tygër, Take Away Thieves, The Karma Effect, Hollowstar, The Virginmarys and headliners Massive Wagons with them all playing to a packed arena! The quality of the music was outstanding from first to last note with each band turning in a performance to be truly proud of. A smaller stage saw performances from seven excellent acoustic acts with these playing during main stage change overs. Every aspect of this festival had been planned meticulously and it showed as the whole event ran like a well-oiled machine. Next year sees the tenth anniversary of the Mayors Fest and the organisers have promised something special, so keep your eyes peeled and get your tickets early as they will sell very quickly!
