Parade Canvas-ing

Do you want to be in the parade? Well there are four ways to join in.

1) If you are a group, organization or business, then fill in the “Join the parade” form and apply to join it. The main reasons for this are to have contact details of the group organizers, to have an idea of the number of groups and to make sure that the groups take the quick safety training course required to take part in the parade.

2 and 3) If you are an individual, couple or a group of friends that want to join in then you could find a group and join in with them. Of fill in the form yourselves (list yourself as a marching group of how many you are. It feels silly, I know).

4) Or you can be spectacular! The theme of the parade is evolution, but if you don’t have a costume that fits the theme, why not join in the parade wearing a thin coat of paint.

We have seven amazing body painters coming down from Dublin to help make the parade colourful. So come early and get some colour on your birthday suit! Only 7 spaces left so book early! There is a charge, (these painters are bringing equipment and expertise) but you’ll be wearing something unique, and are sure to feature in many photographs of the parade. To book mail info@theotherplacecork.com with the subject of “paint” and we’ll get back to you.

Speaking of photographs, would there be any interest in doing a photowalk of the parade and its setup? Email info@theotherplacecork.com with the subject of “photowalk” and I’ll try to get passes for you.
