A NUMBER of colourful characters were at Llanilar Carnival on Saturday afternoon, all looking to pick up prizes in the fancy dress competitions held on the day.

Pictured here are the likes of Harry Potter and Hermione Granger, The Trolls and even Olaf and Elsa from Frozen - just some of the characters to make an appearance.
