New king Stephen Nair will join carnival queen Amber Nair to lead the carnival fancy dress parade on Saturday, July 8. The pair were crowned during a King and Queen Night at Scarth Memorial Hall on Thursday, June 8.
They will be joined by princes Jamie Horsely and Miles McCracken, and princesses Josephine Waldron and Keira Gregory.
The evening kicked off the lead up to Staindrop Carnival and the newly formed and re-named Carnival Events team has been working hard to ensure this year's carnival is bigger and better than ever.
New for this year is a wheel barrow race, tug-of-war, Black Sheep Morris Dancers, live singers and groups, tractors and a duck race.
Staindrop Young Farmers will be putting on an animal petting section while a classic vehicle show and steam train provides interest across age groups. Staindrop’s village green will be home to market, bric-a-brac, tombola and a host of other stalls.
Tony Smith of the carnival events team, said: “Why not come and join us for Staindrop’s Got Talent on Wednesday, July 5, and sing and dance all night long?”
