AN ESTIMATED crowd of<br />
up to <strong>15</strong>,000 descended on<br />
Thomson Park for the 13th<br />
annual ‘I Love Brighton’<br />
festival.<br />
“This is a family<br />
friendly even that we<br />
put on every year with<br />
activities for children, a<br />
little market area, we’ve got<br />
entertainment happening.<br />
offerings, keen to recruit new<br />
members by running games<br />
and activities.<br />
<strong>The</strong> event began after the<br />
Christchurch earthquakes as<br />
pedestrians will still be able to<br />
access businesses in the area.<br />
“We’ll need to install temporary<br />
stop-go traffic lights while<br />
we complete this work, with a<br />
one-way system in place between<br />
Worcester St and Hereford St for<br />
BIG TURNOUT: An estimated<br />

was a great way to star the<br />
year.<br />
I mean, just a fun day for<br />
everyone.”<br />
Community groups<br />
