Beaufort Street Festival Draws Thousands

Spreading a mighty kilometre and a half along the street, the festival was filled with music, fashion, food and creativity.

Highlights included a special children’s play area where kids painted a car and covered it with feathers, while alongside an obstacle course of materials created a creative wonderland, while a jazz band played in the background.

Along the street bands and DJ’s played a variety of music, while street performers ranged from earnest singer songwriters to giant octopus like creatures that squirted water at passersby.
