This year there will again be a FREE vehicle and walking parade. We want it to be loud and visible and bigger and better than last year. The Parade will start at 11am on Saturday 14th June and move towards North Pier, turn right up Talbot Road and then right into Abingdon Street and finishing in front of the Winter Gardens where the opening ceremony will take place.
