This year's festival has now been officially launched and will take place on the 19th and 20th July.
As usual,it will be in Dartford Central park and be full of live music and displays, including a circus as well as all of the normal rides and performances. I just hope the weather is better this year - I remember that last year the parade that launched it was rather thin on the ground due to the days of wet weather that lead up to it.
Start date: Sat Jul 19, 2008 00:00 AM
End date: Sun Jul 20, 2008 00:00 AM
