Wednesday 2:00pm will mark the opening ceremony to herald six days of noise, thrills and all the fun of the fair as tens of thousands of people flock to the Esplanade for their annual visit.
We took a look along the waterfront as the finishing touches were put to some of the stalls ahead of the huge crowds just waiting to enjoy all the rides and side shows.
