This years carnival will be taking place on Sunday 8th July 2012. The Parade will start at 6pm from Russell Street Car Park and follow it's usual route up through the Town Centre.
After the success of last years parade we are pleased to say that this year's parade is shaping up to be just as good.
Dover Town Council have again sponsored the brilliant "Bloco Fogo" band, who will be once again leading the parade ahead of The Court of Dover 2012.
Mr John Trickey, Chairman of Dover Town Carnival would like to take this opportunity to thank all those that have supported them throughout the year, we hope that Dover will enjoy the parade and join in the spirit of Carnival and once again thanks go to Coombe Valley Transport for providing the means for many of the entries.
As well as Bloco Fogo, the ATC Band, Medway Silver Stars and Hawkinge Flyers (both Majorette groups), CJ's and Beddowes Dance Academy will join the visiting Courts from all over Kent and local businesses that have entered the parade.
It is not too late to join in the parade yourself, please email dovertowncarnival@hotmail.co.uk for a copy of the entry form. As well as trophies for Best Float, there is also trophies for best Fancy Dress in both adult and child categories, best decorated pram and umbrella's. Carnival should be fun for all.
End...
