Riverfest

TBC 2012

Riverfest, organised by the Footprint Trust, is a celebration of river and community life. Last year the event was attended by some 4000 people, who enjoyed the atmosphere and attractions on offer.

The event will be hosted on Newport's historic quay and will provide plenty of entertainment and spectacle for everyone. For the children there will be tradtional Victorian funfar stalls as well as local children's activity providers. There will also be plenty of stalls exhibiting and selling everything from local foods to crafts.

One of the highlights of the day is likely to be the flotilla of vessels of all sizes and shapes which will pass-by the quay in procession. There will also be a tall ship from The Little Brig Sailing Trust who provide sailing experience to young people on some of the worlds smallest tall ships.

Entry is free but there may be charges for certain activities.
