A FESTIVAL atmosphere took over the seafront yesterday as people enjoyed Samba Sunday.

Samba dance and drum workshops went on all day, as well as a chance to make a festival hat.

It all culminated in a parade at 4pm.

The event was organised by the Guernsey Arts Commission and was free for people to try.

Community arts development officer Laura Simpson said it had gone really well.
