The event programme includes a parade along the central high street involving musicians, members of the silver bands, dancers, performers and banners. Performers representing their organisation in dance, music, theatre, poetry, film and literature. Stalls and practical workshops by a variety of creatives, and local schools invited to participate in the celebrations.
