Statement from Vena Reid, Colne BID Manager:
“The 70’s were all about colour, creativity, and community, and that’s exactly what we’re bringing to Colne this September. We want everyone to let their hair down, embrace the glitter, and have a boogie! This festival is for all ages, and we can’t wait to see the town come alive with peace, love, and disco fever.”
So, dust off your platforms, throw on some colour, and join us for an event to remember.
It’s time to boogie!
