The Mayor Cllr Mike Ganer said:
“We are grateful to the many community groups, organisations and businesses who were able to attend this year’s festival in Pierremont Park and pleased that so many people were able to join us to celebrate all that’s great about our wonderful town.
A big thank you also to all council staff for their hard work in organising the event beforehand and to the councillors and staff who helped facilitate it on the day. I look forward to the next Community Festival in Spring 2026″
