Music-lovers are invited to a charity festival taking place at the weekend.

Glenstock takes place at the Forge Inn, in Glenfield, on Saturday.

Visitors will be treated to 11 hours of live music, including sets from The Shine, Daniel Giadiello, The Three Amigos, Bearfoot and Purple Circle.

There will also be children's activities, including face painting and a bouncy castle.

All proceeds will be donated to Leicestershire hospice's Rainbows and LOROS.

The Forge Inn licensee Sam Hagger said: "This will be Glenstock Festival's fourth year and we're hoping it will be even better than the last.

"The festival has raised more than £5,000 for charities over four years and we are looking to boost that number through this year's festival."

Glenstock starts at midday.
