The Leith Festival Parade on Saturday 07 June 2008 has changed it's route.

Due to tram works and diversion of traffic this year's parade will start at Lochend Park (opposite Loch Inn Pub), down Lochend Road, Vanburg Place, Hermitage Place, Links Gardens and then onto Leith Links to join the excitement of Leith Festival Gala Day.

The Leith Festival is looking for volunteers to help run the 2008 festival.

The Festival runs between 30 May - 08 June 2008 and requires people to get involved and support Edinburgh’s fastest growing festival....without you there would be no festival!

Volunteers are required to ensure the festival goes off without a hitch and need people for a whole range of duties such as:

• Event stewarding
• Venue management
• Handing out flyers
• Cloakroom
• Front of house

Volunteers will gain privileged access to shows, a festival t-shirt to keep, the opportunity to get involved with an exciting festival on your doorstep and meet lots of new people.

To get involved come to one of our public meetings at the Leith Community Centre in the Kirkgate Centre at the Foot of Leith Walk:

Thursday 15th May @ 7.00 pm
Thursday 22nd May @ 7:00 pm
