Final preparations are underway for the return of the Lichfield Bower.

The annual event, which dates back to 1145, features a procession through the streets featuring local community groups and businesses.

There will also be a funfair and other attractions on offer throughout the day on 27th May.

A spokesperson said:

> “The annual street carnival is a huge part of Lichfield’s history dating back to a time when a statute of Henry II of England ordered that all men capable of bearing arms should be inspected by the magistrates.  
>  
> “Nowadays the vibrant street procession of brightly coloured floats, marching bands and all manner of other fantastic community groups draw thousands of people into the city.  
>  
> “Be sure to visit Beacon Park where the amazing Pat Collins Funfair and their crowd-pleasing display arena will leave you breathless, while other attractions include a community stage and dog show arena.  
>  
> “Whatever you chose we are sure everyone will have a fun-filled day.”  
>  
> Lichfield Bower spokesperson
