parade, the floats are floodlit.
And on Monday afternoon there
are three different bands and
another huge crowd. A massive
firework display caps off the
festival on Monday night.
It takes 4000 hours and a
smidgen of anxiety to organise
this festival. It can be arduous, but the participants have
plenty of laughs together along
the way. The British residents
have been encouraged to work
with the French in this friendly
community - and the French
have welcomed us with open
arms. The entente cordiale is
very much alive in La Rochebeaucourt!
The festival is totally free.
To recover our costs we hold
several fundraising events
during the year and receive
sponsorship from other sources. Many thanks to Leggett
Immobilier, whose head ofice
is in the village, and who is
our major sponsor. The Leggett
family created the Hogwarts
Express and the vintage clown
car, and are hugely involved in
everything we do.
Come and join us next year.
You're guaranteed great fun
and a very warm welcome.
