Blackburn Festival of Light Parade 2022

Started in 2011, this year’s Festival of Light parade theme is birds.

Which birds do you think should join our Phoenix in the parade? Wise owls? Clever Corvids, Proud pigeons, skeins of geese. We’re thinking flocks, migrating or lone roosting robins, murmurations of starlings, cosy nests of curlew, peacock, gull, gliding swan, open cages to flee, free as a bird. It is over to you and your imagination.

Keep an eye out for updates about the parade via Facebook, Instagram and Twitter and on the Blackburn Festival of Light website.
