Judging of the floats will commence at 6.15pm.

Road closures will be in place from 4.30pm to 10.30pm. Affected roads include Woolbrook Road, All Saints Road, Arcot Road, Temple Street, Vicarage Road, and the Esplanade; High Street will be closed at Radway.

Gliddons Toymaster is encouraging youngsters to let their imagination go wild and win prizes in their annual Lego competition.

Participants are asked to build a Lego carnival float of their choice and bring it to the Church Street shop before 11am on September 23.

Adults can also enter this year for the first time in a non-prize class.
