The familiar site of dodgems, waltzers, and candy floss returns to Great Yarmouth today (April 13) as the annual Easter Fair returns.
The Market Place, Fullers Hill, Brewery Plain and Church Plain will hold all the fun of the fair from 4pm until Sunday at 6pm.
Among the rides and attractions planned this year are dodgems, bungee trampolines, bumper boats, rodeo bulls, carousels, a haunted house, a fun house and hook-a-duck. There will also be fairground favourites such as candy floss, toffee apples and doughnuts.
The fair officially opens at 4pm, where Great Yarmouth borough mayor Graham Plant hands over the ceremonial Charter Key to representatives of the Showmen's Guild.
The fair will stay open until 11pm on its first day, then continue on Friday and Saturday between 11am and 11pm. On Sunday, the fair will be open between noon and 6pm.
A temporary road closure has been put in place on The Conge, between the Brewery Plain entrance down to Temple Road.
As with previous years, the two-day market will be cancelled while the fair is in town.
