This year’s event takes place on Saturday (June 10), kicking off with a parade through the town centre to the festivities at Manor Heath Park.
To celebrate, we’re taking a look back in our archives of some of photos from over the years, going right back to 2006.
See if you can spot yourself or someone you know on a float or enjoying a fairground ride.
