Coun Henry Bingham, portfolio holder for portfolio holder for assets and strategic planning, said: “Even with the traditional British start with rain it was great to see that the Ayscoughfest event was a great success, I’ve received some really positive feedback from people who attended on the day.

“More than 3,000 people came along to enjoy the family-friendly festival of music, games and free entertainment which speaks volumes of the efforts our communities team went to organise and deliver such a great event and thank you to Coun Mark Le Sage for assisting with the bands who were fantastic again this year.”
