The event was dreamt up to attract people from other areas into the town to see what it has to offer.
Mrs Squires said: “There are people that are close to Ossett but have never been. But now they are coming to visit our town regularly and that is what we wanted to do."
The Oompah Band performed on the precinct before making their way into Bistro 42 where they got everyone up and dancing.
