The St George’s Celebrations will be conducted from the Pavilion at Wicksteed Park by the Rev Helen Carr.
Seating has been arranged for 1,000; over that it will be standing room only.
Screens will be situated strategically to ensure that the vast majority of those attending will benefit from the Service.

Groups are requested to assemble at the Paradise Lane end of the park from 1300hrs.
The Parade Marshall (Colin Dix) will organise Groups as per the order sheet to arrive at the Pavilion no later than 1345hrs.
The St George’s Celebrations will close at about 1500hrs.
USE OF THE PARK/ WRIST BANDS & PAVILION
Some groups have already made arrangements to make this occasion a day event with the availability of the discounted wrist band offer.
Wrist Bands can be purchased at £13.00 in advance or on the day; these can be purchased from the main ticket office.
ADDITIONAL
The Pavilion is booked to us for the day, thus if anyone requires leaving property prior to the start times you are more than welcome to do so on the proviso that any items or baggage are collected prior to the start of the Parade.
In addition, should the weather be very inclement then I would ask you to make your way to the Pavilion where entertainment will be provided prior to the start of the Service.
There will be recruitment and publicity features ongoing from 12 noon in the Pavilion as well as the District wind band playing for the general public. I would encourage you to pop into the pavilion prior to the assembly time to support the band and encourage members of the public to pop in as well.
