Expected crowd on Sunday 40,000 people

The town was jumping with 3 stages playing music & people dancing everywhere

Loads of people dressed in RNR gear, vintage 40's & 50's gear

Atmosphere was fantastic & we were blessed with the weather, even though it rained overnight, the days were bright & sunny
