Caerwent Village show 2019 was a success as the weather held off

Caerwent village hall and playing fields became home to more than 40 stalls and attractions on Saturday, August 17, alongside live entertainment and a large crowd who turned up to enjoy a fun-filled day.

In all, £3,000 was raised throughout the day to help with improving changing facilities for the village hall.

The musical entertainment was kicked off by vocalist/guitarist Emile, who performed a delightful acoustic set. He is a regular at the show and was joined by another local favourite in Chris Lee.

Tarion provided a summer vibe, Rhythmic Sounds upped the energy and VB Samba Band brought the proverbial house down.
