Volunteers needed to help support Newport Pagnell Carnival this weekend

    Newport Pagnell Carnival

    Newport Pagnell Carnival is back this weekend (2nd July - 3rd July).

    Thousands of people are expected to flock to Newport Pagnell this weekend as the longest running carnival in the Milton Keynes borough returns.

    The two-day event will host entertainment such as live music, stalls, classic cars, a dog show, a duck race, a car-boot and more.

    Newport Pagnell Carnival requires and army of volunteers to make the 2 day event happen. However, this year they are still short of people volunteering to close the roads.

    Until all road junctions are marshalled, the team behind Newport Pagnell Carnival are unable to close roads on the route, meaning the 5k run and annual parade would not be able to take place.

    Road marshals need to be on their junctions at 11.30am and then be on hand to advise motorists of closures and alternate routes (where possible) until the parade has passed. Marshals are then free to enjoy their weekend, knowing they made carnival possible.

    Litter pickers are also needed for each days to keep the town clean and tidy.

    Anyone interested should contact the carnival Facebook page or email volunteers@newportpagnellcarnival.com.
