Chorley Live 2023: Full list of acts and how to get your wristband as two-day music festival set to end today

Chorley Live 2023 returned bigger and better this Friday (October 6), and Saturday (October 7) is set to be no different.

With nearly 300 appearances from a raft of incredible musicians and entertainers across the weekend, here’s how to join in with the fun.

How do I get a wristband?

You can purchase your wristbands from all the venues and performers taking part.

Also from Union Street Civic Offices, Astley Hall Gift Shop and Malcolm’s Musicland.

You can find a full list of venues HERE.

How much are the wristbands?

Entry to the venues will be via a wristband that costs £5 and this gets you into every venue over both nights.

Under 12s are free and don’t need a wristband.

Once a wristband has been removed it is no longer valid for entry to the venues, so look after your wristband!

Wristbands can be purchased in advance or during the event.
