This selection of pictures gives a taste of the chilled out vibes as thousands descended on the West Mid Showground for a long weekend of singing, dancing and relaxing.
Visitors travelled from as far as Oxford and Stockport for the hugely popular event, which started yesterday and runs until Monday.
Some of the high-profile artists booked for the event include South African vocal group Ladysmith Black Mambazo, singing legend Elkie Brooks, Ireland’s Mary Black and chart-topping country pop twins Ward Thomas.
Organiser Jo Cunningham said: "We've got an amazing line up, as ever, and a broad range of music so there really is something for everyone.
"Our day tickets have been flying. A lot of people are coming for a day or maybe two.
"There is something going on at all times. It's just an amazing programme, whether you just want to sit and listen to music or dance in the tent.
