Festival on Devonshire Green
by Rob Smith
On Sunday 24th August all roads
led to Devonshire Green and Burngreavers arrived en
mass. Bouncy castles and Bronco Billy occupied thousands
of young children while skateboarding and break-dancing
displays, led to competitions that catered for the teenage
element.
Information tents, live graffiti artist,
ice cream, food sellers and stalls appeased the hungry
while others looked on with keen interest at the graffiti
artistry and activity on the main stage. Live artists,
dancers and a major freestyle rapping competition mellowed
out the swelling crowd.
Through out the whole day that crowd saw
an array of Sheffield’s own local talent performing,
and amongst that talent were singers from Burngreave
Urban Music Project (BUMP). Topping the bill: ex-So
Solid Crew member and now solo artist Lisa Mafia.
Organisers, the Non Stop Foundation, wish
to thank all those who attended and those who took part,
helped organise and made things happen.
