What our camera lens saw during Norfolk's biggest village festival this summer:

💛Customers quickly gathering around the Chef Demonstration stage, to get a taste from the talented chef they had just been watching.

🩵City of Norwich Pipe Band making a wonderful entrance to the Main Showring, to kickstart the 60th Anniversary weekend.

💛Vintage cars, tractors and other agricultural equipment on display at the top of Mill Hill. A truly sensational spectacle of history, stories and engineering - you missed out if you didn't explore this! Official North Norfolk Vintage Tractor Club

🩵Hundreds of people wandering around the fields, discovering new businesses and making payments; all from ideas they were brave enough to pursue.

💛So much dancing, joy and great singing from the Music Stage area - bands you were all fantastic, and certainly got the audiences on their feet for a boogie! 🎶

Thank you for coming to celebrate with us, and we hope you all enjoyed yourselves.

Ps. Plans in certain sections have already started for Worstead Festival 2027 🤫
