Southwold Street Festival was revived in the coastal town in 2024 after taking a two-year break.

It was the final event to take place as part of the week-long Southwold Arts Festival at the end of June and features a procession of performers alongside a rolling programme of music and dance.

However, organisers have announced it will not be taking place this year.

A statement on the event's social media said: "Thank you to everyone who has emailed to ask whether there will be a Southwold Street Festival this year. Sadly, the answer is no.

"We certainly appreciate all the enquiries and kind words. We are so pleased that you enjoyed last year, and thank you for supporting the event."

Southwold Arts Festival is returning on Friday, May 1 until Sunday, May 3.

There are a range of events taking place across the town at venues such as Southwold Arts Centre and St Edmund's Church during the three-day event.

Dame Maureen Lipman will perform sketches from Radio 4's Maureen and Friends on the Sunday as part of the festival.
