Llandudno Victorian Extravaganza

I know we are just coming up to Easter but the following weekend is May Day Bank Holiday and here in Llandudno we host the Victorian Extravaganza.

The main street through the town (Mostyn Street) is closed to traffic from Friday evening until Monday afternoon and it is full of Victorian fairground rides, stalls and games. There are a couple of stages where various acts perform during the three days.

Each day at midday traction engines, steam powered vehicles and people in Victorian dress parade through the town.


The vehicles and their owners congregate down at Bodafon Field at the end of the town nearest the Little Orme where there is also a huge market and funfair. A shuttle bus runs from Bodafon Field to the Great Orme.

Of course the Lifeboat Stall is on the prom for all three days so if you are in the area come and say hello.

I didn't want to go into too much detail and make this post too wordy but if you do want some more information just go to http://victorian-extravaganza.co.uk/ where you will find all the details together with pictures from previous years.
