Keswick's Royal Wedding Street Party - 29th April 2011

Keswick's street party was a great success with crowds of people turning up to watch the wedding ceremony on the big screen. Tables and chairs were set up in front of the screen which started to fill up quite early in the morning with people securing their spot for the ceremony and by 11 o'clock the street was packed.The following picture was the view down the street from our window.

There were many food stalls for the event with everything from Italian and Mexican food to curries and gourmet burgers. Plus there were plenty of options if you wanted something sweet as many of the stalls were selling cakes and other sweet treats, one stall had, very appropriately, bowls of Eton Mess with a complimentary bucks fizz to toast the happy couple.

After the ceremony was over the party carried on with entertainment from local bands which lasted until late afternoon and with the sun shining for most of the day as well it was a great day out for all.
