The Big Weekend in the park tomorrow and Sunday is jam-packed with entertainment. Visit keynshammusicfestival.co.uk to find out more.
Run by an independent charity, the festival costs more than £100,000 to stage each year.
The money is raised from a Keynsham Town Council grant, local business sponsorships, trader concessions, some ticketed events and bucket collections, so visitors this weekend are asked to make a donation if they can afford to.
