More than 30 town centre shops have been busy creating window displays for the 30th Otley Carnival.

The participating businesses will have their entries in the event’s window dressing contest on Sunday.

Competition organiser Sue Bye praised local traders for responding “magnificently” to an appeal to add colour and brightness to this year’s competition, and is urging people to have a look at all the entries.

The final preparations for the carnival itself, meanwhile, which takes place on Saturday, June 15, are now in place.
