A carnival will take place in Eastbourne this weekend to mark the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

In the last few years the carnival has been disrupted by the pandemic, and although it went ahead last year it was much smaller than normal.

More than 1,500 people are expected to join in with the route from Western Lawns to Princes Park on Saturday June 4, starting at 2pm. It is hoped 25,000 people will be out to support the carnival.
