Performers take over Taunton as crowds enjuoy Somerfest Festival
TAUNTON town centre was packed last Saturday as crowds flocked to the annual Somerfest Festival. They were joined by acrobats, dancers, giant dragon flies and even human topiary - walking hedges.
The High Street, Goodlands Gardens and Castle Green were taken over by a variety of entertainers including trapeze artists, Butlins Redcoats and a sandy beach specially created by staff from the town’s B&Q store.
Sally Mann, of organisers Fuseperformance, said: “It was amazing to see such a variety of performers and talent in the town centre in one afternoon.”
