On Sunday it will host the Thank You NHS concertbetween 11.15am and 6pm, will honour NHS heroes and key workers who have gone above and beyond during the coronavirus pandemic.
Secretary Sharon Evans said: “As you can imagine due to the pandemic we’ve had to make a few changes to the event. The classic car show had to downsize slightly and move into the top field in Wyndham Park on Saturday (instead of being in Queen Elizabeth Park on Sunday) and we haven’t been able to plan as parade this year, so it’s going to be a bit different to usual.”
This is the 35th carnival weekend since replacing the annual Barford Gala.
