Organised by the team behind the Pro-ject Warehouse and It's Just A Disco nights, thousands of people attended the open-air day party in Cathedral Square.

Upton Sunshine Highlights: Boyzlife
听
There were also performances from The Osmonds, S Club 7, Judge Jules and Dave Pearce.
听
Because we chatted to so many performers - getting their top tips for new musicians - we'll be speading out our coverage throughout the whole of this month!
听
This week we're hearing from BoyzLife, which features Brian McFadden of Westlife and Keith Duffy of Boyzone. Together, they've had听46 tracks in the UK Top 40!
听
In recent times McFadden has been a regular on television, appearing in Dancing On Ice and The Jump - Channel 4's Ski Jump spectacular. He's also had a number one single of his own with 'Real To Me'.
听
Keith Duffy was initially unsuccessful auditioning for Boyzone but was spotted dancing in a nightclub by the band's manager Louis Walsh and was invited to join the group! He went on to have wild success with the band before going into the acting world playing a variety of roles.

听
Developing her sound in bedroom studios, Aymee's sound ranges from acoustic guitar to distorted synths, catching the attention of many.
听
主播大秀 Radio 1's Matt Edmondson said: "I absolutely love 'Weight'. I remember feeling exactly the same when I heard Ellie Goulding for the first time, just before she took off and conquered the world, and I predict similarly big things for Aymee."
听
But it all began for Aymee aged five, performing in school and county talent shows, later going on to perform at the Droitwich Salt Festival and the Worcester Music Festival.
听
She says: "Growing up in Worcestershire gave me so many opportunities to perform in some amazing venues including the Chateau Impney and the Artrix Theatre, and it gave me the confidence and drive I needed to pursue my passion."
听
"A sensational performance that stunned the audience from an artist who鈥檚 been taking over 主播大秀 6 Music by storm" - Andrew Marston.
听
KEMPfest Highlights: Fuzzbox
听
The event, which featured headliners Sweet Female Attitude, Max George of The Wanted and Fuzzbox, was raising money for the Kemp Hospice.
听
This week, we're hear from Fuzzbox, who had four Top 40 singles during the '80s, talking about the road to success.
听
Songs like 'Pink Sunshine', 'Love is the Slug' and 'International Rescue' put the band on the map.
听

Live coverage: Onboard The Craft, Bromsgrove
听
The organisers describe it as "two days of outstanding sounds and amazing music".听
Malvern Winter Gardens
听
From the early '60s, for a period of around 30 years, Malvern Winter Gardens rocked to the sounds of bands such The Jam, The Kinks, The Who, Pink Floyd, Motorhead, Hawkwind and many more, some of whom were in their infancy at the time.
听
Local charity Rock Around the Hills created an interactive exhibition, thanks to a 拢60,000 grant, celebrating the story of rock, punk and progressive rock at the Winter Gardens from 1961 to 1990.
听
The display features more than 400 posters, tickets, flyers and fanzines, as well as recorded memories from audience members, musicians and promoters who were all part of the scene.
听
Having already been at Malvern Library and the Hive in Worcester, the exhibition has now moved to the airwaves - and we're broadcasting some of those memories every Sunday, from 6pm, here on 主播大秀 Hereford & Worcester.
主播大秀 Music Introducing at the Worcester Music Festival
