INTRODUCTION
The Shakespeare’s Birthday Celebrations are a free event organised by Stratford-upon-Avon Town Council. The “Celebrations” comprise a series of processions led individually by marching bands with associated flag unfurling throughout the Town Centre.
The Event is on level ground around the town where roads have been closed, giving easy access to pavements and all areas.
