ALL the fun of the seaside is coming to Darlington this weekend.
Tonnes of sand are being imported into the Market Square to create a beach for the start of the Orange Darlington Festival.
Youngsters at The Kids and Co Nursery practised for the big day by playing in the sand pit at the town hall nursery yesterday.
A sand sculptor will be in the Market Square on Saturday to show children what they can create, and everyone is invited to bring their bucket and spade.
Entertainment will include face-painting, hair braiding and the Alpha Radio roadshow. The fun starts at 11am and continues to 5pm
