Guernsey Town Carnival

by GD on Wed Jul 23, 2008 12:55 pm

Gloriously sunny weather in Guernsey has brought out the crowds for the Town Carnival. The event has been re-launched in recent years as the "Fete de Musique a la Ville" and has a new emphasis on music.

The event's designed to provide locals and visitors with something to enjoy as they wander through the streets of St Peter Port and with weather like the last few days, plenty of people are happy to stay and watch.

One of this year's new acts is the opera singers Jack Day and Imogen Roose. Like many of the entertainers they involve the audience as much as they can.

The carnival or fete continues until Saturday and full details of all the events are available below. (from CIonline)
