Bingley Music Live
Bingley Music Live was an annual music festival held in Myrtle Park, Bingley, West Yorkshire, England. It featured rock, alternative rock, indie rock and pop music. The festival was organized by City of Bradford Council and took place at the end of August, usually Friday to Sunday, with at least one day free admission.
The event began in 2007, evolving from a previous festival at Myrtle Park called Music At Myrtle, which started in 1991 and was free to attend and often featured 1960s and 1970s tribute acts. In 1998, a second day was added as The Pulse Party in The Park, offering contemporary pop acts and programming by Pulse FM, and it continued for eight years. In February 2007, the original event was cancelled due to rising costs and declining support from the music industry. Bradford Council then took over and relaunched it as Bingley Music Live in September 2007. In 2009, the festival format changed to a free family night plus a ticketed weekend lineup.
The festival was shortlisted for Best New Festival in the Virtual Festival Awards in 2007. It ran annually from 2007 to 2018, with the goal of providing high-quality music at an affordable price and giving a platform to local bands from across West Yorkshire.
