From interviews backstage to the amazing performances
Last updated 8th Aug 2022
The incredible Rewind Festival returned for 2022, and we had the most incredible weekend at Rewind North. From watching performances from legendary 80s artists, to getting dressed up and taking in all the amazing outfits at Rewind Festival, and many other fun moments, it certainly was a weekend to remember!
We've put together all of our favourite moments from the festival, and let you in on what the Greatest Hits Radio presenters, including Pat Sharp, Des Paul and Jenny Powell, got up to behind the scenes.
If you missed out on Rewind North, or want to do it all over again, there are still some tickets available for Rewind South from Aloud.com.
Keep reading as we take a look back at some of the biggest moments from Rewind North.

The two presenters certainly dressed the part and went all out 80s!
Rewinding back to the 80s
As well as chatting to some of the amazing artists about their incredible careers, we also took a trip down memory lane to talk about the most memorable things from the 80s.
Heather Small gave us her take on 80s fashion.
Mark King from Level 42 reminisced about some of his favourite things about the 80s, from films to games.
Holly Johnson got chatting all about the biggest 80s style dos and don'ts.
Having fun with the Rewind North festival-goers
Is it really an 80s festival without an impromptu sing-along?
Among all the fantastic costumes at Rewind North there were quite a few John McEnroe fans! Jenny stopped by for long enough to hear some tennis quotes and innuendos.
Not all of the elaborate Rewind Festival costumes were newly bought, as Jenny chatted to one festival-goer who was wearing her own clothes from the 1980s!
Who performed at Rewind North?
Lots of incredible acts took to the stage at Rewind North, with Holly Johnson and The Human League headlining the weekend shows. We also saw performances from Heather Small, Kim Wilde, and Level 42, to name a few.
