There's some Mardi Gras musical mayhem planned for February in South Devon.
Fat Tuesday (the translation of Mardi Gras) gets celebrated all over the world, and it's no different in Ashburton, where the arts centre is planning music, arts and even a parade to mark the date.
So on the weekend leading up to Fat Tuesday, Ashburton is going to join in the fun with a Mardi Gras Fiesta including a parade and some appropriate (and funky) music.
The parade will begin gathering outside Ashburton Arts Centre on West Street from 6pm on Saturday 18 February, before moving off at 6.30pm. Taunton's Big Noise Street band, the art centre's own street band and illuminated puppets made by half-term holiday crafters will be involved.
Then, after the parade around the town, the live music kicks off with a packed bill of entertainment.
New Orleans-piano specialist Diz Watson leads a clutch of South West musicians for an evening of hot'n'sticky swingin' boogie-woogie.
