THOUSANDS turned out to enjoy a raft of entertainment and activities during Somerset 2018 in Taunton.

Last Saturday, June 16, the town centre was awash with acts and the sound of music and laughter.

Among the entertainment was the street arts company Avanti Display performed and delighted the audience in Castle Green as water cascaded out of all parts of his body in a spectacular show about masters and servants, garden fountains and big finales!
