THOUSANDS flocked to the festivals which lit up a park with legendary bands at the weekend.
Soultasia and Fantasia took place over the weekend at Maldon’s Promenade Park, and both were a huge success.
Soul and disco were celebrated at Soultasia on Friday, with the event hosted by Ian Reading and DJ Darren Bull.
Smash hit artists such as Billy Ocean, Sister Sledge, and Shalamar wowed crowds throughout the day, and into the evening.
Fantasia then returned on the Saturday with pop music from the 80s, 90s, and noughties.
The legendary Jacksons were in attendance with their performances of some classic hits.
Originally known as The Jackson 5, they gave a lively performance at the park which featured classic hots ‘I want you back’ and ‘ABC’.
Since the show, they posted online thanking everyone for coming to their show and the public showed their support saying how honoured they were to have been there.
Other incredible performers included 2010 X-Factor Winner Matt Cardle, Bjorn Again, Wet Wet Wet, and Sabrina Washington from Mis-Teeq.
In The Park Concerts has said they will reveal the lineup for Soultasia 2023 lineup soon.
