There will be 'swinging, swaying, records playing and dancing in the street' when Chester Live Festival takes over Brook Street for a special party this summer.

The family-friendly community event will kick off at midday on Sunday, June 25, with live music all the way through to 9pm.

Chester Live only made its debut in 2015 but organisers are hoping this year's instalment will be even bigger and better.

The street festival will round off four days of dozens of acts performing across the city's venues.

Announcing the event, organisers had this to say: "We are stupidly excited to have added an incredible free-entry, community event on Brook Street as part of the main Chester Live Festival.
