Burnley Live 2024: Everything you need to know ahead of town centre festival

Taking place over the May Day Bank Holiday weekend – May 3 to May 6 – the event will feature performances from a range of acts across town centre venues, including a specially erected stage outside Mojitos and Remedy in Ormerod Street.

Local independent businesses will be showcasing their handmade creations at the Artisan Market on Saturday from 10am until 4pm, while a selection of Burnley Market stall holders will be selling ‘Festival Food for a Fiver’ on the Saturday as well.

Saturday will also see Charter Walk come to life with the mesmerising tribal beats of Ta Tanka, the soulful acoustic melodies of Lewis Brindle, and an appearance from Darth Vader and his Stormtroopers.
