St Ann’s Square
MUSIC, DANCE, CREATE!
Get creative in the WoW Zone as St Ann’s Square is transformed into a hive of activity and a marvellous making station. There’s plenty of ways to get involved. Have a go at making your own parade hat. Move your feet to the beat, join a dance session and parade in the people’s procession at 5pm.
