Sunshine and smiles were aplenty over the weekend at the Potters Bar Carnival. 

On Sunday, June 11, the carnival saw a procession make its way through the town, starting from Mount Grace Road and arriving at Elm Court Youth & Community Centre. 

The event had 60 stalls, barbecues, a beer tent and plenty more to enjoy between midday and 5pm.
