IT’S billed as the biggest free show in Trafford - and organisers of the Altrincham Festival want more businesses and community groups in the area to get involved.

They are urgently looking for vehicles to be used in the grand parade.

Several groups who are lined up to take part in the event won’t be able to do so unless they get transport.

Five marching bands will take part in the parade.

Organisations can also book a place on the Altrincham Festival showground for the main festival show on July 6.

Companies can use the event to promote their services and charities and other bodies can use the festival show to raise funds.

The main attraction will be the Mark Stannage high fall display team which will be putting on two shows in the main arena.
