St George's Day Family Event in Chelmsford

Chelmsford is celebrating St George's Day this year in style with a day of fun and entertainment for all the family.

Organised by Chelmsford Borough Council's Town Centre Management team, Market Square will host the St George's Day event next to the indoor retail market on Saturday 26 April 2008 between 10am and 3pm.

There will be fun for all the family with live entertainment from local Essex band Adorno Stone, Morris dancing and George and the Dragon street theatre as well as falconry in Bell Meadow. There will also be a 'Hunt the Dragon' competition to keep children entertained.

Cabinet Member for Corporate Services, Councillor Tony Sach said: “This follows on from the successful St Patrick’s day celebrations in March and will add to the everyday hustle and bustle of the town centre. It would be great to see local businesses supporting the event by flying the St George’s Cross.”

Enjoy the lively vibrant atmosphere and browse the many varied stalls of the indoor retail market. For more information about events in Chelmsford High Street, visit the Council’s website at www.chelmsford.gov.uk/towncentre.
