York – Haxby Carnival road closures announced by council
City of York Council is closing roads to vehicles for the parade linked to the popular Haxby Carnival scheduled for Saturday, July 11.
The closure will be in effect from 10:45am to 11:25am.
The town parade is traditionally led by hundreds of children and group leaders finishing in a makeshift carnival showground in Ethel Ward Playing Field in York Road. In 2024, the City of York pipe band led the procession.
