Visitors to the town centre were also able to look around a vast selection of stalls selling everything from fine food to arts and crafts. One of the highlights was two lollipop ladies directing shoppers down the high street.
Beryl Ramsbottom, from Manchester, said: "We are the lollipop patrol, we're directing people through the town centre."
One of the day's organisers, Liz Hulse, 44, an events manager for Stafford Borough Council, said: "The sun came out and it seems to have got a good reaction."
