Our popular annual Festival will take place on Saturday
26th November and comprise craft stalls in The Salvation Army Citadel,
George
Street and High Street; children’s rides in King Street;
a performance stage on the High Street with exciting acts featuring
Grace Bower semi finalist on Britain's Got Talent. Introduced by
Viking FM’s Paul Foster and Rosie Madison, other music and
theatre performances will take place from 1pm until 8pm.
Please note that to facilitate the event the following roads
will be closed to traffic from 8am until 10pm; George,
King Street and High
Street from Burgate to Junction Square.
The Community Parade leaves from the Ropewalk at 3pm led, as usual,
by the team of 6 Reindeer pulling Father Christmas on his sleigh.
The Lantern Parade will also leave the Ropewalk at 5pm followed by
the
Salvation Army Carol Service at the Christmas tree on High Street
with the Christmas lights switched on by the Mayor, Councillor Dorothy
Pearson,
at 6.15pm.
I
hope you will be pleased with the event, but if you are not come
and tell me if you have any suggestions, because the event is put
on
for your entertainment.
All that remains is for me to thank Councillors John Oxley and
Jon Evison, the members of the Community Regeneration Committee
not forgetting
the Town Clerk and Deputy Clerk, for all their hard work and yourselves.
Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year.
Councillor
Alan Todd
Chairman of the Community Regeneration Committee
