Running since 1992, the fair has taken over Millennium Square, Victoria Gardens and Cookridge Street in Leeds city centre and among the rides is a huge swinging pendulum known as The Devil Rock.
Yorkshire Evening Post photographer Steve Riding went along to capture the best of the opening weekend's excitement...
