Join the Armidale Parade

It’s festival time in Armidale, and everyone’s getting floats and costumes ready for the big street parade. For the new family in town, it’s even more exciting: for this is their first time to join in the colour and magic and fun!

Described in lively rhyming verse and depicted in beautiful illustrations, the festive carnival parade whirls along the crowded flag fluttering streets of Armidale. There are clowns and fairies, kangaroos and koalas, ballet dancers and people in national costume. A young child ponders what to wear, and finds inspiration in the red and gold of the Autumn leaves.

What are you waiting for? Join the Armidale Parade, and experience a delightful carnival of vivid festive colour, dance, and movement!
