It's fun and the people from Tavistock and surrounding areas have fun watching it!! You can make money for your organisation or for a Charity, just by taking part. How much depends on the number taking part, but last year organisations received £100! When? On Saturday 15th July 2017 Where? The procession starts from the bottom of Down Road, Tavistock at 6.30pm. You will be given your place to assemble in Down Road when you arrive. All entries should arrive by 5.30 pm. Is it difficult to enter? Not at all! Fill in our form and return it by email or post. Decide what kind of entry suits you. Can you get a float? If so, that is the best stage of all. It is not as complicated as people think! Essentially, you need public liability insurance for the vehicle and you need to make sure no one can fall off. We can give further advice if you contact us.
Route This year we will follow the same route as last year. This proved to be flatter and shorter making it less tiring for the walking entries. As usual, the procession will assemble in Down Road, going from there into Abbey Place, turning left into Plymouth Road, right into Russell Street, right into West Street and on through Duke Street, turning right into Market Road where it will disperse.
