The procession is one of the main features of the carnival with almost 25 full floats in 2008 as well as many walking parties and dancers.

Taking part in the procession couldn't be easier. We will organise lorries for people who cannot manage to get their own all you need is enthusiasm, imagination and a few practical skills. Floats are a fantastic way for companies to raise their local profile and they can make excellent projects for schools and clubs.
