Annual Live Music & Beer Fest @ John Y Gwas �

02/06/2024

Well, how the hell has a week passed?! The dust has settled, and we are still in awe at how awesome this year was. The biggest thank you to our sponsors Balloontastic - Balloons by Jess Brains Brewery Iron Maiden Beer Iron Maiden for your support 🖤

The band's absolutely smashed it out the park this year, Nuts, Butts & Mayhem, White Leather, Scarfoot, Hollowed Existence, In Which It Burns, Zed Motel, SPWCI, Guillotine Dream, PYROGARIC, King Goon and of course our Pre-Gwas bash Friday night guys - Pale Spirits, No Murder No Moustache, and Nuts, Butts & Mayhem again!!

Without the most INCREDIBLE landlord and landlady, Ruby and Lynz, of Tafarn John Y Gwas none of this would have ever been possible - they deserve a medal!

And of course, the sound man himself - Will - the man is just a legend and I can't thank him enough for his knowledge and skills each year! And Tony for all his awesome work, and all the odd jobs I always ask you to do 🖤 you guys are the best.

The sun glistened and the rain fell, and we partied on 🤘🏼 to everyone who came to check out the bands - you're awesome!! Thank you so much for your continued support. If it wasn't for the community, we wouldn't have had such an incredible festival this year, so thank you 🖤

Now, I'd sleep for 6 months after that one... But we have ROCK THE GWASBAH 4.0 to plan 🔥👀
