16ft puppet will leave the crowd at People's Parade in high spirits!

A 16FT tall puppet will lead the way at the huge People's Parade taking place in Stoke-on-Trent tomorrow.

The 'Spirit of Stoke' will tower above crowds and participants when the huge community parade makes its route from Hanley Park at 1pm on Saturday.

The parade - which forms part of celebrations to mark the centenary of Stoke-on-Trent being awarded official city status - will also include one hundred ducks, dancing cupcakes and twenty-strong marching band - KILNÉ - who form part of 1,000 participants.

Each section of the parade resembles a part of Stoke-on-Trent, whether that is arts, music or community.

The Spirit of Stoke - which has been made out of several materials - has been created to embody the iconic arts and architecture, whilst paying tribute to music and dance, including Northern Soul, punk and rave.

It has been crafted by Richard Redwin and Dan Jaworski-Higgs, members of the B Arts organisation.
