Mr Ship said of the festivities so far: “It has been equally as busy as last year; the evening events have been especially popular.

“The town is filled with people on their holidays, we may have lost a few people to the beach as the weather has been so good.

“We are expecting to see around 8-10,000 people on the carnival field tomorrow and probably double that number in the evening for the parade.”

Other events to look forward to can be found at the carnival website.
