We regret to inform you due to circumstances beyond our control we have had to cancel the Huddersfield Carnival Event at Greenhead Park which was to be held on Saturday 14th July 2007.
Persistent torrential rainfall over recent weeks has forced Huddersfield Carnival Committee and Kirklees Council to cancel this year's Carnival event at the park. The Council's Emergency Planning Team assessed conditions at Greenhead Park but the heavily waterlogged ground conditions left them with no other option but to cancel the event for health and safety reasons.
Council safety officers and parks managers deemed the huge infrastructure of the Carnival, which consists of stages, marquees, fairground rides and temporary buildings, could be compromised by the soft and shifting ground in Greenhead Park. This, coupled with the Met Office's forecast for more heavy rain over the coming week, meant it would be too dangerous to proceed with this weekend's event.
Once again your support is greatly appreciated, and apologise for the inconvenience this has caused. We hope that you will continue to support us in the future.
Best wishes,
Henry Cudjoe
Chairman
(On behalf of Huddersfield Carnival Committee)
