Gmel   10 #1 Posted May 16, 2017 I have heard that due to funding issues Heeley Festival is sadly not happening this year, instead the farm are doing a summer fair which will be on a much smaller scale. I also cannot find anything regarding The Big Boulder Festival but they suggested last year that they had raised a lot to put towards 'next year's festival'?  What a shame, I am sure if funding was an issue the community would put together as they do for Sharrow and Peace in the Park.   Any Info would be appreciated.

bassett one   447 #3 Posted May 16, 2017 I heard sadly although the festival on the park side made a good profit they were no longer doing it due staff shortage,but the farm have increased there side of the event and invested more money than usual and hope to win a bid that's if passed is split 3 ways between the farm,sharrow and lowedges,i am quite surprised as we have doubled our expenditure at lowedges so theres still money for festivals out there,its a pity as the heeley festival is or was a great tradition on both sides of the road,but at least heeley will still have a festival and will have some great bands until 8pm and sharrow will have a big event with music also and lowedges have got the same marqee as peace in the park for there reggae on the beach area,so alls not lost.

bassett one   447 #5 Posted June 10, 2017 is the big boulder festival taking place as its a great very busy event this year,suprised theres no mention as it attracts several thousand visitors each year,but shocked that after all these years of making a profit they have decided not to join in with everyone else church ect in having stalls ect on the peoples park.

eventmedical   10 #6 Posted June 11, 2017 Hello,  How big is this event and do the evnt organisers have first aid cover for the event?  I am a small first aid cover business in Sheffield and am currently looking for small events to cover to help generate income.  It would be approx £100-£150 a day.  If someone from the event can email eventmedical01@gmail.com to discuss this that would be great.  Kieran Event Medical Services Director Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
