Thousands turned out at the annual Muslim Lifestyle Expo held at Event City Manchester.

The Expo welcomed more than 120 exhibitors from over 15 countries from as far and wide as North America, Malaysia, France and Pakistan. 

Over the two days the Expo featured a range of modest fashion shows during the day and appearances by social media star Rucksar Naaz (Brown Girl Problems1) and comedian Aatif Nawaz.

Cookery demonstrations by internet sensation Afelia's Kitchen  proved to be a major draw over the two days as did renditions by Nasheed artist Mesut Kurtis.
