Busking is a favourite part of festival, and this year it’s heating up like no others.
Along with the traditional Busking Competition, some people throw down a hat and sing (or play) to their heart’s content.
There are a variety of bands playing a variety of music down the main street, which is closed off for the duration of the festival, playing everything from country and bluegrass to twists on modern music and old classics.
