THOUSANDS flocked to the Worcester Show at Pitchcroft racecourse on Sunday (August 14).

On one of the hottest days of the year, people were excited to take part in a jam-packed day filled with a range of activities.

There were loads of stalls including food, drink, arts and crafts and live music from a range of artists.

Children were engaged with the fairground rides and games while parents enjoyed the live music on the main stage.

A group of drummers called the Dhol Crew, who also featured in the opening show of the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham this year, wowed the crowd with their music. 

People were up on their feet dancing along to the traditional music as they performed on the same stage the Tom Jones concert took place the night before. 

The oldest Camera Club in Worcestershire were showcasing their photography in the crafts marquee. 

The original camera club was founded in 1890.
