The Parade starts @ 11:30 on Burnmill Road and will parade along closed roads through the town, along Coventry Road, East Farndon Road, Welland Park Road, Northampton Road and then finish on St Mary’s Road at the Rec entrance at approximately 1pm.
This year’s theme is
‘Six’
So get those creative juices flowing!
As you watch the floats come through the centre of town, there will be people collecting with buckets alongside the floats fundraising for their own organisation/charity. Show your appreciation by popping a few coins in the bucket!
Applications for this year’s Carnival have now closed. If you have any queries on an existing application, or want to know more details about logistics on the day, please email info@harboroughcarnival.co.uk
