This year's theme is 'Peace, Hope & Unity through Carnival'. The Parade will leave the Racecourse at 2.00 pm and travel down the Kettering Road, into the town centre, before returning to the Park.

Festive Road has been commissioned by Northampton Borough Council, in association with Royal and Derngate Theatre, to create something very special for Northampton - and this spectacular new artwork will be revealed when it takes part in the carnival parade.

You will have to wait and see what the big surprise is!!
