We are inviting everyone to take part in Victoria Day on Saturday 6 June and there are lots of exciting opportunities for residents, volunteers, community groups, schools and businesses to get involved.
Applications are open for parade groups and the stallholder waiting list. You can also volunteer on the day of the event. If you'd like to get involved, please follow the links below.
Take part in the parade
Everyone is invited to take part in the carnival parade, in groups or even on your own! Volunteers, community groups, marching bands and organisations from around Aldershot and Farnborough are encouraged to apply to take part.
The route is half a mile this year, starting at Princes Hall at 11am and ending at the High Street multi-storey car park at around 12.15pm. Registration is from 10am to 10.15am.
This year the theme is 'Folklore and Fairy Tales' and everyone is encouraged to embrace our magical storytelling theme!
Apply to join the stallholder waiting list
You can join the waiting list for a stall in the lively markets on Union Street and in Princes Gardens. You could sell high quality food, crafts and gifts, fundraise, or just raise awareness of your community organisation. If you are a local business, you can book a table space in front of your store, free of charge.
Please read our stallholder application pack carefully before applying. It contains lots of further details and information about fees.
The majority of stalls will be gift based and there will be six subsidised stalls for not-for-profit community organisations in Rushmoor.
Volunteer on the day
On the day, our volunteers support the event with parade marshalling, stallholder arrival and helping with family activities. Our volunteers choose which elements of the event they would like to get involved in.
If you would like to find out more or volunteer for helping on the day, please email Jenny Atherton, Events and Cultural Projects Manager at towncentreevents@rushmoor.gov.uk.
Thanks to our sponsors and supporters
