BID events and marketing manager Sarah Fenton said: "The George Street businesses were brilliant in supporting this event and combined with the thousands of revellers they created a fantastic atmosphere.

As part of St Albans Food & Drink Festival, the event showcased the very best of the street's shops, boutiques, bars and restaurants culminating in the perfect October evening!"
