Hundreds of parents, children and people of all ages flocked to the park for the community festival created to contribute to the regeneration of the city, celebrate the cultural and social diversity, and create a space for local artistic expression.
It was the culmination of a week-long festival which also sought to raise awareness about social issues affecting children living in the city and encourage stakeholders to create a vibrant and healthy city for children.
One of the festival’s main attractions was a 2km Parade of the Clowns - a colourful street parade showcasing participants in clown costumes and some in eye-catching traditional attire.
A number of activities were showcased, including music, art, fashion, entertainment, food and handicraft. Children were also called to the stage to showcase their moves for different prizes.
