THERE was fun in the sun at the weekend as Darlington hosted its annual community carnival.
Fire eaters, a fairground, circus tricks and live bands were among the attractions on offer to the crowds in the Market Square and Stanhope Park.
The carnival was opened on Saturday by the town's mayor, Stella Robson, who was greeted at Darlington Arts Centre by walkabout llamas, and drummers from some of the town's primary schools.
The entertainment continued through to last night, when the carnival ended with a performance by Richard John Thompson.
