Think circus street performers, acrobats, comedy, live music with samba and brass bands, street games and even a Kiddies silent disco. Other activities include historical walking tours, a silversmith workshop tour and an interactive ‘Tell A Tale’ storytelling session that’s bound to keep the little ones occupied.
In other words, there’s loads going on.
Festivities start at noon and are set to run right up until the evening time.
Wishing all at @NanoNaglePlace the best of luck with this! Great place to visit! https://t.co/T8VncwGcsL

Food options include pizza, paella and a pig on a spit. The three most important p’s of any good party.
Douglas Street will be closed to traffic at Summerhill South, Rutland Street, White Street and Dunbar Street between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. so bear that in mind when planning your visit.
