Welcome to Wilton Community Carnival Website. Please keep calling back
Wilton is a small town just outside Salisbury in Wiltshire, England. It is actually much older than Salisbury; settlements go back to the 11th Century and it was once the Ancient Capital of Wessex. Wilton still retains this title!
Our Carnival Queen is Kimberley Hayes (18) and Carnival Princess is Charlotte Small (6). Wilton Community Carnival takes place every year and also has a long and ancient history. The Community Carnival Week takes place in the Town between 26th June - 5th July 2009. There will be a week of exciting events for everyone including a Fun Fair, historic walk around Wilton, special Songs of Praise, Pub Quizzes, Local History Talk, and of course Carnival Bingo. The Carnival Day is Saturday 4th July 2009 when there will be a Grand Procession with an "American" Theme through the Town. It will start at 12.30pm and feature The Mayor of Wilton and visiting Wiltshire Mayors from Salisbury, Amesbury, Devizes, Trowbridge and Warminster, the wonderful Dolphin Marching Band and Major Wrecks - comedy spoof male majorettes! The procession will walk to Castle Meadows for a fun afternoon of events and activities to be opened by Robert Key MP. Castle
Meadow will provide a free afternoon of great family entertainments including The British Plate Armour Society - battling knights, clowns, face painters, classic cars, fairground rides and children's races, inflatables and a buckin' bronco, Punch and Judy, Looni Ballooni balloon modeller, food, bar and stalls and car boots sales and Grand Raffle. The afternoon's grand finale is the fantasic "Blazing Saddles" comedy C&W and Line Dance Band. More to come...keep calling back.
