There was Maypole Madness at Freshney Place to celebrate May Day!

To celebrate Mayday, Freshney Place Shopping Centre invited the local community to come along and join in with the tradition of Maypole dancing!

Maypole dancing is an ancient tradition where performers act out a ceremonial folk dance around a tall pole adorned with ribbons, which are then plaited to create beautiful patterns.

The fun and light hearted event invited adults and children alike  to have a go at knotting the Maypole ribbons under the guidance of professionals who demonstrated the dances and provided instruction.

Easter events draw huge crowds at Freshney Place Shopping Centre

Freshney Place Shopping Centre had one of its busiest Easter trading periods in recent years owing to a range of activities and events which were designed to entertain customers, adding some seasonal fun over the weekend.

The events which were all free, included a petting farm experience, an Easter trail, face painting and an Easter egg nest craft event. The general sense of fun was added to by the Easter Bunny, who could be spotted on Thursday 18 April bouncing through the shopping centre giving out free chocolate eggs to passers-by as a random act of kindness.
