After 10 years, the FOPP Lantern Parade on Sunday 17th December will be different this year; however, with your enthusiastic input, just as enjoyable we hope. The time has come when Leeds City Council think we need professional traffic management for the Friends parade down from the Park. That has not been possible to arrange this year, so there will be no community parade from the Park. Instead, here is
| 4.10pm | Gather at Guiseley Town Cross. We envisage people walking from their homes as dusk falls with a lit lantern to gather together at the heart of Old Guiseley. Music from Guiseley Brass Band, Mince Pies, collect a Carol Sheet. | |
| 4.20pm | Be there to see the arrival of the Guiseley Lanterns as darkness falls. Listen out for the drumming as they get closer. | |
| 4.30pm | Start of carol singing by lantern light with Guiseley Brass Band | |
| 4.50pm | Finale, with children singing Jingle Bells on the steps . If you have them bring bells to jingle |
Festive dress is encouraged to make the event more special; dig out your Santa hats, antlers, and Christmas jumpers.
Let’s Make This Special
We would ask, as always, that children are accompanied by adults. And if the weather is pouring down, as has been its habit since July, we will cancel the event, so watch out on the day on our Facebook page. Parkinson’s Park.
