A FUN-filled futuristic festival hits Southampton tomorrow to celebrate the diversity of the inner city.
The annual free St Mary's Festival is expected to attract more than 2,000 people for the blend of dancing, music and a colourful procession.
Its futuristic theme will see dozens of people donning space-age outfits for the procession, which will wind down St Mary Street.
There will also be magicians, belly dancers, storytellers, a Punch and Judy show and a tug-of-war challenge.
Event co-ordinator Jo Musgrove said: "It has been great to see so many people come together with so many wonderful ideas about how we can make the day as successful as last year when more than 2,000 people attended.
"There are loads of activities happening on the day which are suitable for all ages, live bands, pole jousting and a bouncy castle.
"We just want as many people to come along and join in. There is going to be so much going on it will be a fantastic and lively day."
The event runs from noon until 4.30pm.
