“Families will be able to come down and enjoy the day free of charge while using the parks facilities including the fair ground and cafe.”

There will also be live music on the Fresh Coventry and Warwickshire stage, which is a new local digital radio station.

Kick-starting the live music will be Warwick duo Blind Faith, who will also be celebrating their first professional anniversary.

The duo formed last August when a near-death car accident spurred 22-year-old singer Faith Meades to join forces with 50-year-old blind pianist Step-Dad John Garrett. Also performing is Leamington’s Naomi Beth-Rogers. Chasing Deer and Coventry-born George Smith, son of Coventry’s soul circuit singer Betsie Harmony, will also be performing.
