A key part of the opening weekend is the Procession. It is known for being the 2nd largest non-funded event of its type in the country with float numbers regularly exceeding 100. Supported by various local groups, companies, families and friends getting together to build out and dress up their own floats, participants then walk/drive around a route through Saffron Walden with crowds in excess of 15,000 cheering them on around the streets. Rumour has it the procession can even be seen from space! Click here to fill out or download an entry form for the 8 Day Weekend Procession and more details about this event – don’t miss out!
