Programme of events 1988 - 2019 Welcome to the 31st Jarrow Festival Since its revival by Jarrow Councillors in 1988, the Jarrow Festival has gone on from strength to strength celebrating art, culture, education, sport and leisure activities and I know that this year's festival will not disappoint. We remain a strong, vibrant and close community, which is why we believe it is important that we continue to celebrate the Jarrow Festival every year and we hope that everyone will come along and support the many events. This year the Festival Finale will be a “Parade of Banners” from the Town Hall to Drewett's Park bringing together communities, groups and organisations from across Jarrow and culminating in a celebration of all the charitable and volunteer organisations and local volunteers in Jarrow and across South Tyneside . I am sure that despite the difficulties many of the community organisations have had this year that Jarrow Festival 2019 will be one of the most successful and enjoyable yet, particularly if we are blessed with some good weather. Roy Merrin (Chair Person Jarrow Festival Committee) Cllr Ken Stephenson (Vice Chair and Mayor South Tyneside Council) The Jarrow Festival 2019 would like to thank....... South Tyneside Council Best Wishes from Bede Ward Councillors Fay Cunningham and Margaret Peacock hope everyone enjoys the fantastic events which are taking place at our “31st Anniversary” Jarrow Festival this year.
