All day music and market at Leigh festival

A laid-back day of live music, market stalls and delicious local food is on the cards for Saturday, February 9 when the Leigh Summer Festival take place on the school field from 10am.

Four acts will perform on the music stage twice each to provide an all-day soundtrack to Leigh School’s main fundraiser for the year. They are Mema Wilda, playing psychedelic rock; Levi, playing rock-infused folk songs; Hayley Nessia, performing classical rock; and roots reggae DJ Fish and Bread Sound System.

There will be plenty of market stalls selling a wide range of goods, including crafts, produce and vintage items, plus all sorts of rides, games and inflatable fun for the kids. The school pool will be open for swimming, the traditional ice slide will be in place and there will be plenty of Leigh’s popular quick-fire fish raffles.

Food will include hangi, Leigh fish burgers and gourmet lamb baps. Auction lots include a fishing trip with Thor Charters worth $2000. Money raised will go towards a new kitchen for the school.
