All set for festival
FINAL preparations are underway for this year’s Rishton Festival.
Stalls are booked and events planned, and a parade will take place through the streets.
Local councillor and festival committee member Clare Cleary said: “Every year the festival gets bigger and better and we have a lot of local support.
“I am looking forward to this year’s event. Let’s just hope we get the good weather again.”
The festival takes place on Saturday. This year’s theme is ‘Pride of Britain’.
The parade will begin at 10.30am from the railway station, in Station Road. It will head to Norden High School, in Stourton Street, where the main event will take place.
