Three circus rings are coming to Worstead for its annual festival on July 27 and 28.

The Worstead Festival's main highlights include the Dick Turpin Highwayman show featuring BMX riders turning somersaults and horse riders performing stunning stunts.

The second ring features the Eastern Counties Heavy Horse Association holding their annual show at the festival for the first time.

It will showcase six horses on Saturday and 20 on Sunday.

In the third ring, the Norfolk Dog Training Society will perform throughout the weekend.

Attendees will have the opportunity to receive tips on how to have fun with their pets from the experienced resident trainers.

Beyond the traditional circus rings, there will be three other 'rings' to explore.

These include LEGO-CON, curated by Mark Thompson who lives in the area, teasing three main themes of transportation, fairground and fantasy.

The festival's Music Stage has a top lineup.

Saturday's headliners include Get Loaded, alongside the world music of The Foreign Locals, Hammett, SubTxt and Worstead School Choir.

Sunday promises a mellow afternoon with The Shunter's Blues Band, Flann, Emma O'Reilly and Peter Turrell.

The festival goes beyond music and performances to offer a gastronomic experience.

Visitors can watch Norfolk's top chefs cook their favourite recipes presented by Candi's Cupboard.

Among other attractions, the festival will feature art from local artists, a classic car show and more than 100 artisan stalls.
