This weekend (23-24 June 2018) is Prestwich Carnival. There are some activities in St Mary’s Park on Saturday, but the main parade and carnival takes place on Sunday 24 June.

The great team of volunteers that put on the Carnival say: “For the people of Prestwich and surrounding areas, Prestwich Carnival has been a key celebration in the summer calendar for many years. In fact, in its present format the Carnival parade spans back over 90 Years.

Once a year St Marys Park plays host to a great family day out including a fun fair, stalls village, music and much more; culminating in the grand parade which passes through the streets of Prestwich.

For 2018 we will be having a Fun Day on Saturday the 23rd of June, with funfair and various activities from1pm to 5pm with the Big Day on Sunday the 24th of June, come and join in the celebrations and be part of our community!”
