Location?
Most events will be based in and around the closed High Street above the water basin near Bakedd/Coppa Club, with live entertainment on a raised stage by the Stag on the Chapel Arches bridge (opposite Coppa Club). Other activities will use Maudsley Gardens and the amphitheatre. Where can I park? There are several town centre pay and display car parks nearby including Hines Meadow (Sainsbury's). |

On the Main Stage
All Day (10am-3pm)
|
Canoeists and paddle boarders are invited to join us to celebrate and enjoy the restored town centre waterway, which is fully open to navigation between Town Moor and the new Green lane weir.
We will officially start the event at 10.00am with a count-down led by the Town Cryer, before the Canoe Cavalcade sets off, emerging to music into the main water basin by Bakedd/Coppa. We want you to be part of it. If you, your friends or family have a boat and want to join the fun please send an email to [email protected] in order to receive final access and parking instructions. Book a Stall SpaceThere are a number of stall spaces (3m x 3m) available to both local charity groups and businesses. These will be located mainly along the High Street above Chapel Arches and within the Waterside Quarter. We have a road closure agreed and places for stalls will be allocated in advance on a first come first served basis. Click the button below to book your space.
