A MULTICULTURAL festival is being held on Saturday in the Audley Community Centre.

Families are invited to attend a free evening of live music from Asian bands and featuring singer Silinder Pardesi.

Pensioners can enjoy an afternoon of entertainment and a meal.

Yaqoob Hussein, chairman of the Audley People's Festival Committee, said: "We decided it was about time somebody did something to get the community together.

"Music is the language of cohesion, and this should be really good."

Tickets for both events, can be obtained from the community centre.
