Festival Fever! 

Swindon Summer Festival 2008 brings town centre to life

 

It's not quite Notting Hill, but Swindon certainly had a bit of carnival fever running through it this weekend.

The Swindon summer festival, which took place from Thursday to Saturday, was a fun-packed celebration of arts and culture.

 

And crowds gathered in the town centre to see the likes of a giant caterpillar, an insect circus museum, helter skelters, and much more weird and wonderful things taking to our streets!

 

With a grand finale courtesy of the Nofit State Circus in Faringdon Park on Saturday night - whose fascinating performance brought together a mix of pyrotechnics and traditional circus acts.
