Crowds gathered in Readhead Park, South Shields on Saturday to celebrate a centenary event of the park being gifted to the council.
To celebrate 100 years Friends of Readhead Park hosted a special event including a range of stalls, a singer, artwork exhibition and sales by artist Sheila Graber, raffles and tombola and refreshments and snacks.
Cllr Glenn Thompson of Friends of Readhead Park said: "All the stall holders were asking us when the next event would be, I’m pretty sure everyone did well.
"Most importantly though was that the local community and the wider community came along in droves to support the event and really enjoyed it.
"We are pretty sure we will be holding another similar event, possibly next Easter, and again next August but we are still talking about this."
