50 fun photos from Newcastle's Hoppings 2019 - can you spot yourself and your friends?

There is huge excitement ever year as the giant funfair arrives in Newcastle - and this year has been no different.

The weather was mixed but, as you can see from our gallery, those days were still fun for little ones, and there were plenty of sunny and dry days to enjoy the rides and stalls too.

Our photographers went along to The Hoppings on various occasions to capture all the fun of the fair on Newcastle 's Town Moor and if you or your friends and family were there, you could be in our bumper gallery of 50 fun photos.

Whether you were crouched under an umbrella or basking in sunshine, check out our photographs of daring rides like the Mach 5 'Bomber', Ice Jet and the Exciter, along with traditional funfair staples, such as dodgems, waltzers, a ferris wheel and charming children's rides.

There are people holding massive toys and candy floss after winning on the side stalls and some just in awe of those on daredevil rides like the Bomber.

And if you didn't make it this year, you can enjoy the occasion by looking at these scenes!
