The coronavirus pandemic forced the cancellation of this year’s festival, which has run annually since 1994.

Buxton hosts the festival in the week before the biggest event of its kind in the world has its main showcase in Harrogate.

The family-run festival was founded by the late Ian Smith and is now organised by his wife Janet and sons Neil and Oliver.
