Across the event from last Friday (May 26) to Sunday, revellers supped a total of 6,000 pints of real ale, 2,250 pints of real cider, 1,000 pints of Foster’s lager and 200 pints of Strongbow cider.
And 14 acts from several genres of music took to the stage.
Festival organisers were delighted to emulate the 2016 profit, particularly as extra investment had gone into sound and lighting, the family area, facilities and having three acts from Spalding rockfest Barbeque 67 to commemorate its 50th anniversary.
The Castle Sports Complex main hall was packed for Sounds Force 5, Zoot Money and headliners Geno Washington and The Ram Jam Band.
Festival chairman Sam Nundy said: “We hope everyone who came had a great time and noticed the improvements this year.
“We raised a brilliant amount of money which will be going out into the local community soon.
“I’d like to thank my organising committee and give particular appreciation to three groups – the sponsors, the 140 volunteers who gave their time for free and to all the customers.”
