More than 3500 people attended the Bridport event, enjoying a day of sport, entertainment and fashion.
North-East Inspector Michael Johnston said despite the high numbers, there were no reports of anti-social behaviour.
“From what I understand people were fairly well behaved,” he said.
“Obviously there were some extra people around Bridport on Saturday night, but there was no significant incidents reported to police.”
