On Saturday, September 10, Blackwood High Street will be transformed into an urban beach party with plentiful sand, deckchairs and buckets and spades to keep the whole family entertained.
A large number of funfair rides will bring life to the one end of the high street with stalls, attractions and a giant beach taking over the other end.
Blackwood Town Council will also be arranging their feature stage with a full entertainment programme all day incorporating local singers, bands, and dance acts.
Blackwood town centre will be a hive of activity, boosting footfall to the local retailers and hospitality venues.
Blackwood Town Council is funding the event with support from Caerphilly County Borough Council.
