Welcome
to Eccleston Parish Council's website
Diamond Jubilee
HM the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee will be celebrated with an event on Saturday 2 June 2012 on the Recreation Fields.
The event will be based on a 1950’s themed ‘Big Picnic’, and will offer everyone the opportunity to celebrate the occasion. One of the aims is to encourage people who would, or would not, have attended either Street Parties, or their own garden parties, to bring their own party to a larger, village event.
The Event will feature live entertainment with a Dance Group, singing and dancing to appropriate songs from the 50’s, with additional attractions including a Children’s Entertainer/Punch and Judy show, coconut shy, swingboats and candy floss. There will also be craft stalls.
We are hoping organisations within the village will join in too.
If anyone is organising their own events please make sure you look into the legal and health and safety aspects - you might need to arrange for a road closure if you’re having a street party and possibly a music licence and/or a licence if alcohol is to be sold at your event.
