UPDATE 17:21: The Sandown Illuminated Carnival is due to take place has been cancelled tonight. A real shame given the amount of organisation that goes into these things.
(Thanks to Debs Aske-Harris for the update)
Organisers tell us that they’re currently planning to run the event, with floats assembling at 7pm, judging 8pm, and the procession 9pm.
This will be weather dependent of course, with the ‘raincheck’, literally being taken at 7pm.
Their website will be updated as soon as a final decision is taken.
