The children of South Tyneside had no shortage of fun to keep them busy in the Summer of 2015.
Whether it was Magic Andrew in Jarrow or Tony Junior in South Shields, there were children by the dozen who were kept enthralled 11 years ago.
And thanks to these photo memories from the Shields Gazette, we can share those scenes once more.
A Shields Gazette report at the time said: “Youngsters enjoyed a host of entertainment in South Tyneside last week.
“Down at the Amphitheatre in Sea Road, South Shields, a Kids’ Fun Fest ensured that little ones had plenty to do.
“Tony Junior and a host of other performers put on a fun-filled show with games and more at the seafront venue. And at the Viking Centre, in Jarrow, a children’s magic show was on offer to delight youngsters.
“Entertainer Magic Andrew performed tricks and enlisted the help of audience members to create magic.”
