THERE will be a grandstand view at the bandstand in Redditch next month - with dance displays, sports activities and lots of free fun for children.

The bandstand in Church Green will be a hub of activity on August 13 from 12 noon to 4pm.

Displays from the Kerala Cultural Association and local dance schools will be part of the action, which will also include bouncy castles, face painting and circus, music and craft workshops.

Val Wilson, arts and events officer for Redditch Borough Council, said: "The school holidays will be in full swing by August so if you're looking for something to do as a family pop along and take part.

"There are activities for all ages to enjoy and the whole thing will be a very inexpensive fun day out."
