Those who attended their performance back in July will appreciate what this ensemble are doing to promote arts in the community. After they did Ribfest they recorded their second album & are currently running a crowdfunder to get it through the final post-production stages. If you're interested in supporting them, follow the links on their website or head straight to http://kck.st/4qR4wS9 It’s a great chance to pre-order the album & there are lovely Baroque In The North tote bags up for grabs too.

Amanda Babington's second Musette album. Previously-unrecorded works for musette with other instruments.

We’d like to give a huge shoutout to the team at The Black Bull for their brilliant support of RibFest 2025! Not only did they keep the good times flowing all weekend, but they also curated a special RibFest beer just for the occasion! 👏🍺

Thanks to their generosity and the support of everyone who enjoyed a pint, they’ve raised £50, which is being donated to Ribchester Playing Field Trust to help support the amazing community space we all love. 💚

Cheers to local businesses making a difference — we’re so grateful for your support! 🥂🎶

🎻✨ RibFest 2025 came to a truly magical close this evening… ✨🎻

And what a beautiful way to end — Baroque in the North delivered a mesmerising concert in the Village Hall, filling the space with candlelight, music, and emotion. From the very first note, the room was spellbound. A timeless and elegant finale to a week of energy, creativity, and celebration. 🕯️🎶

This year’s RibFest has been packed with unforgettable moments — promenade theatre through the village, soul and sax at The Shed, West End vocals in the church, Logan Paul Murphy lighting up the stage, and now, the serenity of Baroque to close.

A huge thank you to our performers, volunteers, organisers, and of course, our incredible community who came out to support every step of the way. Your warmth, enthusiasm and generosity made this festival truly special.

Until next year, Ribchester. 🌿🎪💛

🎷☀️ What a brilliant afternoon we had yesterday at The Shed on Stydd as part of RibFest!

The sun was out, the drinks were flowing, and the garden was buzzing with relaxed summer vibes. We had one incredible street food stall serving up delicious handmade dishes that kept everyone coming back for more 🌮🔥 — simple, fresh and full of flavour!

Adding to the atmosphere was the amazing Paddy Higginson on the sax 🎷🎶 – effortlessly cool and the perfect soundtrack to a lazy Ribchester afternoon. From toe-tapping jazz to upbeat classics, he had the whole place smiling.

Thanks to The Shed, our fantastic street food team, Paddy, and everyone who joined us — yesterday was RibFest at its finest 💛
