A few of drizzles threatened to dampen the mood of visitors, however, rain failed to play a factor in the proceedings on the first of celebrating Alberton Day.
With Gangs of Ballet, Shadow Club and Prime Circle all geared and raring to go it was only a matter of time before temperatures in Alberton would rise.
Gangs of Ballet was a hit! #AlbertonDay

Before the bands took the stage, the crowd enjoyed some wrestling entertainment which proved to be a hit with the younger viewers. To the crowds roaring cheers, each band more than held their audience captive from the first note to the last chord played.
