8/9/2012
What an amazing event The Reggae Garden Festival turned out to be. The music was amazing, the venue was perfect, the sun was shining, and the atmosphere was friendly with a contagious vibe that everyone caught on to. 'One Love' was definitely the theme throughout the day as people danced, Jamaican flags were waved, and almost all sung along and got involved with the performances. It really was one big happy family.
Another factor that made an excellent event was that it was very family orientated with a bouncy castle for the children as well as face-painting, nail art, and hair braiding provided by The Youth Life Project. It was a joy to see so many smiling faces and happy children having fun and getting involved.
The success of last years event and the fact that this years topped it by miles, has left everyone excited for what's in store next year!
It was a massive turn out and everyone had amazing time. Events like these that show of Swindon's diversity are second to none and are much needed as well as enjoyed.
Congratulations to AJ and Bully who organised this event, you've done Swindon proud!
Here are a few pics of the day for those unfortunate souls that didn't attend..
