UNICORNS, fire breathing dragons, singing mermaids and 4m high trolls will come to life at a magical festival at the weekend.

Enchanted Horsham will see Horsham Park transformed into a mystical wonderland with secret illuminated gardens, spectacular fire shows at dusk, live music and silent discos. Stilt walkers, bubble acts and other circus performers will be roaming through.

Festivalgoers can watch films on a giant screen at the silent cinema, have a festival makeover with glitter, neon and face paint, enjoy the vintage funfair or be creative at a dragon craft workshop.

The event runs from 5pm to 11.30pm on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Fire shows and tribal drumming performances featuring a fire breathing dragon will be held each night at 8.30pm and 10.15pm. A neon disco tent will be open from 6pm each day for a silent disco and there will be prizes for the best “enchanted fancy dress”.
