SHAKE and Stir the vintage music festival, returned to Southbourne over the weekend.
The one-of-a-kind festival celebrated all things vintage, with family entertainment in Fisherman's Walk.
After an official opening from the mayor, there was live music in the bandstand and stalls selling vintage-themed food and clothes for visitors to enjoy.
Event organiser Mandy Polkey said: “Today has far exceeded my expectations, the community support has been amazing.
“On average about 9,000 people have been here today, so we’ve had Covid management, everybody has been 100 per cent fantastic, we’ve has lot of volunteers, bands all day, a small little bit of Covid hit with some traders and a few bars not being able to come but it’s been absolutely cracking, lots of smiling faces.”
