Battle of Flowers Christmas Parade cancelled
The Jersey Battle of Flowers' Christmas Parade has been cancelled, organisers have announced.
It comes after organisers opted to postpone the event, which was scheduled to take place on Sunday, due to bad weather.
A statement released on Tuesday detailed how an alternative date was not possible.
A spokesperson for Jersey Battle of Flowers said: "The challenges posed staffing the parade safely have meant we could not proceed confidently with a rescheduled event."
They added: "The safety of our spectators and participants is always our top priority.
"We extend our heartfelt thanks for your incredible support and understanding, with special gratitude to the Bailiff's Panel for their tireless efforts as we worked to bring the parade to fruition."
