A festival with tickets starting from £5 has a line-up boasting artists that may one day be seen "at Glastonbury".
Problem Child Original, is in its second year of running in Parbold, which is around a 40 minute drive from Liverpool. Festival organisers hope to showcase local talent from foodies to up-and-coming artists.
Held on The Wayfarer festival field, from Friday, May 17 to Sunday, May 19, the event also offers camping for the full festival experience, or day tickets for those who prefer their home comforts. A spokesperson for the festival said: "We love a good covers band but this festival is about finding bands we hope to see at Glastonbury in a couple of years."
