Knowle West Lantern Parade and sign unveiling

Date: Friday, Nov 1 2019
Time: 5:30pm
Venue: Filwood Community Centre

A lantern parade and Hollywood-style sign are set to brighten up Filwood Broadway – the high street at the heart of the Knowle West community in south Bristol.

Led by the Filwood Fantastic group at Filwood Community Centre, the lantern parade is the first of its kind to take place in the area since the iconic Knowle West parades of the 1980s.

The Hollywood-style sign has been made by the Filwood Fantastic group with help from Knowle West Media Centre: The Factory.
