Crowds enjoyed a touch of magic at Primrose Hill's summer garden party with children's activities, live music, and a conjuring show.

Sunday's event was organised by the Primrose Hill Community Association and included face-painting and musical entertainment from local bands and singers.

Tea, cake and sandwiches were served alongside a beer and Pimms stall in Chalcot Square Gardens.

The event included a competition to create the best mask for children and adults.

The association aims to forge a stronger community among those living and working in Primrose Hill by running events, classes and workshops for all ages, and mobilising volunteers in response to local needs.

Association member Pam White said: "The Primrose Hill Summer Garden Party in Chalcot Square was attended by over two thousand visitors during the course of the afternoon.

"It is run by the Primrose Hill Community Association to bring the community together on a nice summer’s day.  Sadly the weather was a bit grey but no-one seemed to mind.

"A good time was had by all and the Association received a healthy sum in donations from visitors to go support their work in the  community."
