Funk the Family Festival, what a day!

by The Bonniemob on June 01, 2015

The sun came out, the families arrived and team Funk The Family saw their hard work unfold and blossom before their eyes. The one-day family festival in Hove Park, Brighton was a huge success!

We were there, introducing our new rebrand 'The bonnie mob' and explaining that Bonnie baby has grown up and now goes up to age 7! So to get to know all our local fans, we set up a 'TAG YOUR OWN T-SHIRT' tent, and saw some of Brighton and Hove's finest Mini graffiti artists come to paint a fluo T-shirt and join our new mob.

The truth is, the bonnie mob was mobbed!!! Despite wanting to enjoy the festival to its full and report back to you with a full round up of the events, I just didn’t have time, we were painting and tagging from 11.30 till 7.30.

But for a full report through the eyes of Bella, who truly tried and tested the festival, including painting her own Bonnie mob masterpiece! Head over to http://dearmummyblog.com/ for a fantastic festival report
