ONLINE usicians, dancers and performers descended on Bold Street for a day of family fun in the sunshine as part of Liverpool’s One World Festival. Over 10,000 people visited throughout the festival, which included live music acts such as the drummers of La Bomba as well as performances from Liverpool’s Irish, Chinese, Caribbean and West African communities. There were also stalls, face painters, trapeze artists and portrait artists to entertain the crowds at the event. The free festival kicked off with businesses and festivalgoers taking part in the ‘Clean Sweep’ street clean at 11.30am, and ran until 6pm with stages at the either end of the street and local cafes providing outdoor seating.
