A Trampoline in Sandgate leading on to the Fun Fair in Sandgate Carpark will all set the scene for the days main event of the Grand Parade through Penrith that will commence at 14:30.

 

A full Penrith Lions May Day Carnival programme has been created to mark the day produced by Lee Quinn for Penrith Lions.

The Programme is available through local businesses in the town and will also be available from a special Eden FM outside broadcast location on May Day.

Eden FM will be broadcasting live from the back of an Ambulance located near the Musgrave Monument in the town centre.

The ambulance is due later this week to head out to Ukraine with the team from The Pot Place at Plumpton who will be on hand collecting donations on May Day.

The roads through the centre of Penrith will be closed to traffic for the duration of the May Day carnival event with diversion routes signposted around the town.
