FINAL preparations are being made for this year's BomFest in Locke Park next weekend.

Organisers say this year's event will be the biggest music and art festival ever held in Barnsley. They hope 5,000 people will turn up to see the acts which include Tom Hingley and the Lovers, acoustic musician Nick Harper and Barnsley band Skinboat.

The festival will this year also feature art and dancing. Details at www.bomfest.com
