Lindisfarne Festival takes place in Northumberland this weekend, bringing an end to a fantastic run of festivals across the region over the last few months.
No matter how big festivals are within the current entertainment scene, September doesn’t mean the end of live entertainment in the region.
There is still plenty to enjoy as we approach Autumn and these are some of the biggest names getting ready to perform in our region over the coming months.
