It is the fourth year the event has been held and it is organised by wisARD , Wisbech Area Regeneration and Development Trust with the support of Fenland District Council, Wisbech Town Council and Fenland Arts.

In the Horsefair Shopping Centre there was face painting and at the Trinity Church apple based refreshments were available.
