This month the ‘Consett In Focus’ photographers attended the highly successful ‘Consett Comedy Festival’.
Consett’s very first Comedy festival, held on the Bank Holiday weekend was a great success and enjoyed by everyone who attended. Organised by LiveWorld Ltd and hosted by the Rugby Club – they are already planning a bigger event in 2023.
