Carnival set for three day stay in Prince Rupert

The Prince Rupert Civic Centre was a beehive of activity on Thursday evening, with one event the National Aboriginal Opportunities Conference coming to an end and the set up for the annual visit of West Coast Amusements getting underway.

As Friday arrived, Carnival workers were putting the final touches on the range of rides, games and attractions of the midway, heading towards the countdown to the Three PM Friday opening.

As we outlined on the blog in late April, the WCA tour has been taking place over the last seven days, with stops in Terrace and Kitimat before the trek down highway 16 of mid week.

The midway opened at 3 PM today,  It opens at Noon on Saturday and Sunday as well, however the
Sunday hours will be shorter than the remainder of the weekend as the Carnival puts a wrap to its visit around the supper hour.

Carnival wristbands for All Day rides on Friday and Saturday cost 40 dollars, while the All Day Ride wristband for Sunday is thirty five dollars.

Discount coupons can also be found in the weekly newspaper.

Those attending the Carnival appear in luck weather wise as well, while there may be the odd shower through Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday offer up the prospect of sunny skies for those taking to the midway.
