Carnival fever struck Burnham-On-Sea on Monday evening (November 10th) when large crowds of spectators lined the town’s streets to watch a colourful procession of 97 entries.
This year’s Carnival Queen Tara Moxey, 17, from Highbridge, and her princesses, Burnham girls Katie Lawson, 10, and Cali Rae Brown, 7, pictured, led the procession, pictured right.
They were closely followed by a special float carrying Burnham’s Olympic BMX rider Liam Phillips and Paralympic swimmer Anthony Stephens.
Local emergency services, including West Country Ambulance, St John Ambulance, BARB and HM Coastguard, were near the front of the procession.
Among the local entries was Hillview JCC with its Jesters Parade carnival float (pictured at the top of this page).
The prize for the best entry went to Gremlins Carnival Club’s Nemesis – click here for full results.
