As this is a major celebration year we are planning a more extensive route for the carnival procession so that more residents can enjoy this special event. Details will be published in the near future. Due to the current situation and advice received we have had to take the decision that whilst we can present a procession we will not be able to deliver the normal event in Parson's Close Park this year.

For this reason we want to make the procession as spectacular and involving as possible. If you would like to take part we welcome everyone, groups and individuals, lets make the best and biggest ever. The theme is '1962 Revisted' hence this is our 60th Carnival celebration event. Why not get involved?

Returning in 2021, our Big Lunch not only has a new date, but new timings and a new venue too! To ensure the safety of members of the public along with those working and selling at the event, our Big Lunch Food Festival will take place on Saturday 21^st & Sunday 22^nd August in Parson’s Close Recreation Ground where a reservation will be required to attend.

Due to the current restrictions we have had to take the decision to revise the date of this event and schedule it for 15th September this year. The GOOD NEWS is that it will go ahead.

This event is aimed at the pre-school age group and their parents/carers/nursery schools

it is a FREE community event
