There will also be performances from a Freddie Mercury act and a Little Mix tribute band, plus local dance groups and singers.

The event will be launched by the usual float parade, featuring ‘carnival royalty’, and one of the most popular attractions is sure to be Glapwell’s fun dog show, Bark In The Park, with prizes to find the prettiest bitch, most handsome dog, waggiest tail, best veteran, best trick and best fancy dress, as well as overall best in show.

Organised by the Glapwell Community Development Group, the carnival will feature a spectacular display of scarecrows and mannequins, not to be missed.
