Longton Carnival and Pig Walk Parade returns on Sunday 26 April 2026 for a full day of free, family friendly fun in Longton town centre.

🐷The Pig Walk Parade
Starting at Longton Exchange and making its way down The Strand, this colourful parade celebrates a unique piece of Longton’s history. Look out for vibrant costumes, live music, dance performances and a giant puppet pig leading the procession.

🐷The Story of the “Pig Walk”
John Aynsley, Mayor of Longton from 1886, raised money and secured land for Queen’s Park, Longton, as well as for Longton Cottage Hospital.

One of his fundraising efforts involved driving a pig through the centre of Longton. Today, we celebrate that quirky and much loved tradition through Carnival.
