A POPULAR family fun music festival in Malvern is set to return.

MappFest is returning to Malvern Link Top Common on Saturday, June 18 and Sunday, June 19 for a packed programme of live music and activities, which aims to support the community.

Entering its seventh year, festival goers can enjoy the glory days of the 70s and 80s through local bands including The Loved and Lost, Raptor, Malvern Big Band, Miss Pearl And The Rough Diamonds, Sun Fire and Magic Eight Ball.

As well as live music being performed in the 140 seater covered tepee, the festival will host a wide range of activities including sumo wrestling, a giant 240ft water slide, bouncy castles, arts and crafts, a tombola and raffle, children’s entertainers and a licenced bar.




There will also be a ‘Battle of Britain’ memorial flight on both days, where Spitfires, Lancasters and Hurricanes will make an appearance.

This year, the festival is raising money for Acorns Children’s Hospice, St Richard’s Hospice and Community Action Malvern and District and is being sponsored by SwingIt Sound Systems, Julie-Anne Goode Photography and Marsha Parkins Fine Art and Illustration.


The event runs from midday to 10pm on Saturday and midday to 6pm on Sunday.
