Chester's Winter Watch Parades
Chester celebrates the Winter Solstice with this colourful parade. This spectacular event is based on Chester’s 15th century tradition of ‘Setting the Watch’, when the city leaders handed over the keys of Chester to the City Watch – the early police force – after processing around the city to ensure it was secure. The WinterWatch Parade combines colourful costumes and a collection of characters to provide a popular festive event. Celebrate Christmas with the Lord of Misrule, devils and dragons,
