Among the highlights of Feltonbury was a flash-mob choir of 60 or so people, while Giulio Tampalani, an internationally-acclaimed guitarist, performed at the event.
The village hall hosted music in the evening, when a hogroast was also served.
Along with the music, there was the related art trail, enabling local artists and craftspeople to display their work.
