As well as the stalls there will be traditional music and entertainment to celebrate the summer solstice.

Cllr Craig Skinner, chairman of Kettering Town Council’s markets and events committee, said: “We really hope people will get involved in this event – it’s a great chance for charities and groups to show the town what they are doing, and get more people involved.

"Come along and support your local community while enjoying the summer evening.”
