More than 30 community groups showcased what they do through activities, including sports, circus tricks and a police speed gun, at the 10th annual I Love New Brighton festival.
The main stage featured a kapa haka performance to kick the festival off and the Natural Magic Pirates and the band Hypnumb also drew in a crowd.
It was the first year the event had been held since Thomson Park was upgraded with a new basketball court.
The festival was funded by local businesses and the Coastal-Burwood Community Board.
