Lytham St Annes - The nations epicentre of St Georges day celebrations
Residents will be aware of the forthcoming celebrations for St Georges Day, the festivities now scheduled to start at 06:30 am in Lytham Piazza with live TV coverage on GMTV!! Today we found out that Lytham has won the top TV slot over Manchester and presenters will be cutting live to Lytham from 06:30, with Lytham and Fylde receiving National coverage.
At 10am the Flag raising ceremony will take place on Lytham Green opposite the Clifton Arms Hotel with a Military march through Lytham and then Brass Band in the Piazza.
I urge as many residents as possible to turn out from 06:30 this Thursday to take part in marking our National Day, this event has taken a massive amount of planning and I take my hat off to David Haythorthwaite, Phillip Aindow and all other involved in making this celebration happen. I’m sure that due to all this hard work the event will grow each year, not only putting the Borough on the map but ensuring that Lytham becomes the place to be on the 23rd April.
The Council and police have also played their part in ensuring this event goes off without a hitch, I lok forward to seeing many thousands of Fylde Folk on the streets of Lytham on the 23rd, 24th & 25th
