Christmas Carnival Time

December 13, 2018 by Maggi Barnard

The wait is finally over with the Forbes Christmas Carnival happening today! There is so much more on offer this year including free rides on the tea cups, jumping castles and Hector – the bucking bull. Test your artistic talents with Street Art or join the kids in a giant game somewhere in Templar or Rankin Streets.

Showcasing 30 market stalls with lots of variety. Some of the stalls include plants, children’s clothes, honey, cherries, adult clothing, handmade jewellery, natural oils, candles, signs, beeswax wraps and slime.

There are also some wonderful food and drink stalls dotted around.

Again the amazing emergency services will be on hand to demonstrate and talk to visitors. There are also give-aways and activities.

There is even a rumour that a special visitor might arrive on a very important vehicle as well.

The novelty relay race will be held at 6:45pm in Rankin Street. Teams of two are most welcome. Call into SportsPower and nominate or show up on the evening.

Come along from 5pm to 9pm and join in the fun.
