Leading the Carnival and announcing its approach to the waiting crowds was the Lairds of Dixieland Parade Band with their foot tapping traditional jazz.

Drumming up a rhythm were some local youths from Stix Percussion drum school.

Whitehaven Brass Band

No Carnival in a mining town could be complete without the familiar tones of a brass band and Whitehaven Brass Band excelled in the role.
