Festival of Transport
A ‘Transport through the Ages parade’ was held in April 1992 and was so successful that it is now well established as an annual attraction. The parade includes an impressive line-up of all types of transport ranging from veteran, vintage, classic - both heavy and light - right up to the very latest cars and heavy goods vehicles.
The two-mile parade attracts crowds from home and abroad and has proved so popular that entries have had to be limited because otherwise the parade would be too long! Each year the day is combined with a National Town Criers’ competition with Town Criers travelling from all parts of Britain to compete. The brightly coloured costumes of the Town Criers against the backdrop of the picturesque Ancient Crosses on the Square make for a most entertaining event.
The Transport Festival is staged each April and includes a general market and many other attractions and entertainments including live music.
