We’re looking to make this year’s parade bigger and better than ever, and we’d love to see as many entries taking part as possible.

If you’d like to enter, please get in touch at [email protected] to book your place.

🏆 A reminder to anyone who is still holding a trophy from last year – please arrange to return it to a member of the Gala Committee as soon as possible so they can be prepared for this year’s presentations. 🏆

🔵⚪️ Crowning Update ⚪️🔵

Following careful consideration and due to the unpredictable weather forecast, the decision has been made to hold this year’s Crowning Ceremony in the Town Hall.

While we had hoped to proceed outdoors, the comfort and enjoyment of our principals, participants, guests and spectators is our priority.

We look forward to welcoming everyone as we celebrate the crowning of our 2026 Gala Queen, Miss Chloe Hyslop 👑

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. We can’t wait to see you all there 💙
