THE revived Royston Arts Festival was an overwhelming success.
Thousands of people turned out for events which ran from stand-up comedy to a history walk around Royston.
In between there was drama from the Royston-based group Cads and a concert in Royston Parish Church which was given a Last Night of the Proms atmosphere.
Organiser Kathy Wholley said: "We can say without any doubt that it was certainly a success.
"And that's not just our opinion. This is what we told by the people who attended the events."
She said the organisers had learned much from putting on the four-day festival.
"It was good to see it revived and I believe we created four exciting days for the community," said Kathy.
And next year? "We said we wouldn't do it again, but when we had a meeting on Monday evening we started thinking about next year.
"There's already some new ideas about what we should do," she added.
