Brixworth Carnival 2010
Thursday, September 10th, 2009Following the success of our last carnival in 2000, there are plans afoot to hold another one on 3 July 2010. The theme is Brixworth, Past Present and Future.
There will be a Carnival King and Queen, together with Princes and Princesses.
All village organisations will be invited to take part and there are plans to invite some marching bands, majorettes and Morris Men.
The details of the route are still being negotiated with the various bodies but is expected to be similar to the previous one.
