A samba band had shoppers dancing in the street with a series of lively show in the heart of Maidstone town centre.

Bloco Fogo has treated crowds to several shows today, outside of the Town Hall, in Jubilee Square.

Dozens of people have gathered in the sun to watch the group plays Brazilian, Cuban and African rhythms.

The hard-to-miss performers, who regularly play at events across the town and Kent, received plenty of cheers after the colourful shows.
