Stiltwalkers, jazz music and a dog show are just some of the treats in store at this year's Radlett Festival.

This summer's two-day event begins with an outdoor musical concert called Picnic in the Park at the Phillimore Recreation Ground in Gills Hill, Radlett, on Saturday, June 17.

A hog roast, barbecue and drinks tent will be on offer to those who attend the picnic while they listen to jazz band, Vine Street Six, the Divertimento Wind Quartet and The Borehamwood Brass Band.

The evening will conclude with rousing choruses from the Last Night of the Proms led by Radlett residents Sylvia Cohen and Nigel Rogers.

The festival will carry on into Sunday with a Magical Fair' for all the family, including activities, competitions, fancy dress, a climbing wall and a Punch and Judy show.

There will also be a raffle with a chance to win a £1,000 cruise, helicopter flying lessons at Elstree Aerodrome and a replica World Cup trophy.

The fair will also take place at the Phillimore Recreation Ground from 12.20pm to 4.30pm, and Black Thunder cars will broadcast the fun and games courtesy of Chiltern FM.
