Pete spoke to the East Anglian Daily Times about his tour next year saying “I can’t remember a time where I was more excited and looking forward to playing. After being locked down for over a year, that energy is going to blow the place apart.” The Director of Colwyn Bay, Pablo Janczur said to North Wales Live on next year’s event, “We ‘ve promoted this show in outdoor locations twice with great success and its always been the highlight of our summer so we can wait to bring it to Colwyn Bay. Get ready to party North Wales.”
