The date of the 2011 Carnival – Sunday 10th July – was publically announced on Monday.  As Carnival Chairman Bryan Harper said in this week’s Newbury Weekly News, we’ve already had considerable interest in next year’s event, which is fantastic.  We know that lots of people are already thinking about their entries.  Hopefully you can now make a note of this date and begin making plans for next summer.

At the moment, we don’t know whether the Carnival Fete will take place in Victoria Park or Northcroft Park.  Both venues have proved popular in previous years.  Much depends on the developments in Park Way over the next few months and we will let you know, when we know where the fete will be.  But wherever it is, the 2011 Newbury Carnival and Fete is sure to be a great day out for all.
