Ovingham in Tyne Valley is embracing a new annual event.
The village held its first Ovfest last Sunday, a one-day music festival that attracted revellers from as far away as France.
The festivities began at noon with a children's disco, organised by Mister Disco Man, which ended with a Hokey Cokey.
The live music kicked off with 16-year-old Hexham pop vocalist Hannah Sayburn.
She was followed by Hexham folk rock musician, 15-year-old Ruth Jenkins, who played impressive rock and folk covers.
The Fiddolin Trio from West Northumberland kept the energy high with their jigs and reels.
Next came a village poetry segment, followed by an entertaining village karaoke, featuring standout performances from Melissa Simpson and Diane Shane Stone.
Ovingham's Nathanael Lewis provided beautiful classical improvised interludes between the acts.
As the day progressed, the village ladies enjoyed the smooth sounds of swing vocalist Robbie Johnson, and Den (the pelvis) Purvis treated the crowd to popular song covers.
At 7pm, the crowd welcomed Elvis Presley, or rather West End of Newcastle impersonator Eddy Popescu, who performed from a smoking toadstool trailer.
His show was followed by an impressive set from village singer-songwriter Sam Shields.
The festival concluded with a performance by festival headliners The Whistle Testers from Prudhoe, who delivered a captivating finale with their folk rock covers and harmonies.
Festival organiser Dean Bowen stated that the first Ovfest has been a day for the village to remember.
He said: "There is such great community spirit in Ovingham and the whole village really came together for a great party on the green.
"All the local acts performed for free and the support from so many villagers was wonderful, whether it was from volunteering as stewards to providing first aid cover or supplying electricity from their own homes for the event.
"A big thank you to everyone who got involved and supported us and who came and enjoyed themselves."
He added that the festival was a success and everyone is already forward to next year for Ovfest25.
The village has previously held the Goose Fair and the Ovilympics, but this is the first time a music festival has been organised.
