Hundreds of people are expected to flock to a community event in a park on the edge of the city this weekend.

Events committee chairman, councillor Jonathan Emsell said: “I’m really pleased to be able to offer Thorpe St Andrew residents a new event at Fitzmaurice Park to enjoy, and to give some great small businesses a chance to introduce themselves to the local market."
