🎉Kelso Civic Week 2026 🎉

🗓️ Its just 6 weeks until the start of Kelso Civic Week 2026!
🎭 And only 7 weeks until the Fancy Dress Parade!

Now is the perfect time to start thinking about your fancy dress idea… get a group of friends, neighbours, sports clubs or social groups together and get your thinking caps on to come up with an idea to join the fancy dress parade! We’d love to see as many people as possible taking part in this year’s parade! 🎭

The Fancy Dress Parade is one of the highlights of Civic Week! Last year’s parade was a huge success, let’s make this year even better!

🔵Anyone looking for help getting a trailer for the parade please contact Dougie Davidson
