A COLOURFUL array of floats, bands, marchers and costumes will pour along Campbelltown's main street this Saturday for the annual highlight of the festival the Fisher's Ghost Parade.
Starting at 1.30pm, it will proceed along Queen Street from Broughton Street to the Old Camden Road roundabout.
There are more than 60 float entries this year, ranging from the Campbelltown Camden District Band to John Grasso's Muscle, Custom and Classic Vehicles and Campbelltown Highland Dancing.
Campbelltown's 2009 Citizen of the year, Tanyia Harris, and Mayor Aaron Rule will open the parade.
Afterwards, celebrations will continue with a free Family Fun Festival in Koshigaya Park until 4.30pm, free entertainment and a tribute concert to Crowded House and Split Enz at Bradbury Park until late and a carnival and fireworks spectacular.
Cr Rule said the parade and its theme ``The Spirit Lives On'' helped to foster community pride. ``The event embodies Campbelltown's spirit and provides a fun and vibrant way of showcasing our city's unique heritage,'' he said.
``It also provides an opportunity for all members of our community to come together and lend support to each other, at one of our city's most celebrated events.''
Prizes will be awarded for the best floats.
