CARNIVAL is back and town and tonight Ilminster's streets will be lit with the extraordinary carts that the clubs have brought to show.
The procession kicks off at 7.15pm and will make its way down East Street into the Market Square and then up through Silver Street before moving onto the main road through Ilminster and down Station Road past the Shrubbery Hotel before reaching the dispersal area from the roundabout by the Texaco garage out towards Hort Bridge.
Bay Hill Road will be closed from 2.30pm, while other roads on the route will be closed to traffic from 6.00pm.
After the carnival, motorists who have parked in any of the side roads off the procession route will have to go in the direction of the Yeovil and will not be allowed to go towards Taunton (Southfields Roundabout).
