22 pictures which highlight how BBC's Summer Social made the ideal family day out

Today marked the final day of this year's BBC Summer Social which has taken place across Croxteth Park this weekend.

Throughout the weekend, festival-goers have watched artists such as Pixie Lott, Busted, John Newman and X-Factor's Rak-Su performed while characters from some of the biggest children's television shows also headed to the park.

Despite the Met Office predicting thunder and rain, these photographs show families didn't let a few clouds stop them having a good time.

As always, ECHO photographers were in the midst of the action, so if you were there this afternoon take a look through our gallery and see if you can spot yourself.

Mr Tumble and Friends, Andy & the Odd Socks and Max & Harvey were among the children's entertainment throughout the weekend.

Running alongside the main stages on both days was also a huge range of outdoor activities.

In the BBC Sport field there was an array of sports from tennis, to parkour and a Match of the Day Kickabout Challenge.

There was also a Doctor Who fun, a supersized Bedtime Stories tent , performances and Q&As from some of CBBC’s biggest shows including The Worst Witch and an entire field of inflatable fun – including the world’s biggest bouncy castle.
