- Children (and adults) enter competitions where one participant is blind folded and feeds a tub of ice cream to their partner. Doughnuts are eaten off a string line with contestant’s hands behind their back. Egg and spoon races are a laugh a second.

- If they are lucky and a bit patient fans are able to meet performing artists for photos and autographs.
