A luxury tipi event in the Suffolk countryside is returning following a suspected arson attack that caused more than £60,000 in damages last year.
Between 6pm on Sunday, October 8, and 2am on Monday, October 9, Events Under Canvas was targeted by suspected arsonists.
The attack happened shortly before a weddings and events showcase the company holds every spring and autumn.
Four of the tipis set up on-site just off the A12 in Capel St Mary were set on fire which cost the company around £60,000 in damages.
Events Under Canvas has announced the Luxury Marquee and Tipi Showcase Event will be returning to Capel St Mary on Saturday, April 27 and Sunday, April 28.
The free event is open to anyone who wants to see how tipis and marquees can elevate an outdoor occasion.

Jenna Ackerley, founder of Events Under Canvas, said: "Our marquess and tents are glorious, awe-inspiring structures, built by experts and stylish and flexible by design.
"Once a year we put them all up in our HQ showground, invite suppliers to join in showcasing their goods and services, and dress them with all the beautiful fixtures and fittings we offer."
Making its debut this year is the immersive dining pop-up Sundown Restaurant by Spindle Catering from Tuddenham Mill.
