Starting off with music (Severnfest) during the first weekend and moving into a carnival (2nd weekend) through to a food festival (3rd weekend) this event went on for three weeks in all including events such as a battle of the Bands and dancing by moonlight in St Mary's church as well as theatre, arts and alternative therapies and workshops for all ages.
Spiralling costs and increasing red tape forced organisers to cancel the event in 2005.
