GRAND PIER WEDDING PARTY LIVE ON NATIONAL TV

The Grand Pier’s street party to celebrate the Royal Wedding on 29th April will be featured live on Daybreak and on ITV throughout the day. It will be the biggest street party in Weston-super-Mare.

Daybreak will be filming live from 7am on the covered South Deck of the Pier, while the first 100 party-goers who arrive before 7am in fancy dress enjoy a free traditional full-English wedding breakfast and watch the build up to the ceremony on outdoor screens, plus a giant screen inside the Pavilion building.

There will be live music, with bands playing all of the old favourites. The Grand Pier will also be running a Royal Wedding fancy dress competition with prizes throughout the day. The overall winner will receive a weekend for a family of four people in London, with trips to some of the Capital’s top attractions.

Grand Pier owner Kerry Michael said: ”We are kicking off our street party with a full English wedding breakfast, so if you want the chance to be on live TV and receive a free breakfast you will need to be in the first 100 people to get here before 7am – in fancy dress.

“We have the perfect setting on the Grand Pier for a giant street party, whatever the weather. We want people to come along and enter our fancy dress competition and enjoy the attractions, on what is really an extra day off for the whole country.
“Many of our older visitors will be able to remember the Queen’s Jubilee parties and the street parties to celebrate the marriage of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer, but some younger people will have never attended a street party before. We are determined to show them how it’s done”.

School children in North Somerset are also being invited to enter a ‘design a crown’ competition. Entrants are asked to bring along their crowns on the day, when a winner will be selected. The winner will receive a £50 Grand Pier ride voucher for themselves and a £150 ‘new equipment’ voucher for their school.

Party-goers who wish to pre-book their seat on the South Deck of the Grand Pier can do so by purchasing a £5 ride voucher. To pre-book your seat at the Grand Pier street party, please call our Events Team on 01934 646155.

A wide range of food and drink will be available to purchase, including the favourite British staple of fish and chips.

  1. Hello,
    I came across your website and found it alluring and exciting. I am a big fan of travel and design. If you could e-mail me back at MGates@elliman.com, that would be great. I just had a couple questions.
    I look forward to hearing back from you soon! Have a great day.
