Lisburn will be awash with colour for this year’s Mayor’s Parade
The Mayor’s Carnival Parade and Family Fun Day combines the dazzling spectacle of the UK and Ireland’s most celebrated carnival acts and a host of fabulous entertainment experiences.
The Mayor, Alderman Stephen Martin, said: “Once again, young people from local schools and our community will be joining in on the fun and the contents of both the Parade and Fun Day will be the most exciting, eye catching and entertaining yet! I am proud this top cultural community event will also help raise funds for my Mayoral Charities, ADD NI and MACS which help young people across the whole of Northern Ireland.”
