PRESTWICH poet Tony Walsh will take to the stage at the Head for the Hills Festival in Ramsbottom tomorrow.
Also known as Longfella, the 51-year-old shot to fame following the recital of his poem ‘This is the Place’ in Albert Square the day after the Manchester Arena attacks in May.
He will appear on the Hills Stage, with the stage time yet to be confirmed.
The three-day event kicked off last night at Ramsbottom Cricket Club with a headline set from Maximo Park, and will resume today at noon. Among the acts performing today are Beth Orton and Dutch Uncles. Tickets are available at the gate.
