Salisbury Live continues this weekend with a two-day event at Alderbury Recreation Field.

The annual Picnic In The Park is one of the festival's most popular events, attracting people from Alderbury, Salisbury and surrounding villages.

On Saturday 7th June from 2 pm Saigon, Tramps & Amps, Disco Diva's Overcast and HP & the Reggae Source will take to the main stage, with Craig Hicks from Salisbury Radio hosting things.

Things are a little more laid-back on Sunday, 8th June, with a lineup of acoustic music, including Joe Burke, Jude Dylan, and a Solarbird acoustic set.

There are licensed bars, delicious food, market stalls, and plenty of activities to keep the kids occupied. The event kicks off at 2 pm on Saturday and 3 pm on Sunday, and admission is free.
