Friday night, the night before the next day's big culmination in the crowning of the Beltane Queen! Friday night is fancy dress night, in which anyone who is inclined to dress up, alone or with a group can do so. There are competitions held on the Green by the river in the early evening, followed by a big parade along the High Street.
Generally the fellow with the penny farthing bicycle makes an appearance, in a different costume each year of course.
There are small groups and large groups, but the largest ones are the nursery (pre-school) entries who usually hire a lorry and decorate it to their theme. 
Here is the float for the littlies of one of the nursery schools!
