Home > Get involved > practiceathon >Share a Stage at Glastonbury competition winners, The Fayre played a blinder on Friday night of the festival! Despite bad weather they gathered a very lively crowd of happy festival goers.
Thanks to The Fayre for a fantastic set!
'The Fayre' are a four piece Ska/Funk band from Saddleworth and Oldham, Lancashire.
They have won the chance to perform at the Glastonbury festival - one of the most prestigious music events in the world.
The band have been playing together for just over a year and they fought off tough competition from a host of bands, aged 13-24. Music genres ranged from rock, indie, pop, folk, trip hop to funk.
But it was 'The Fayre' who caught the eye of the judges.
