Roman Around Ratae - Old Town Festival Roaman Edition

Join the Roman Soldiers as they take a march around the city of Leicester or as they know it Ratae Corieltauvorum they form together at the impressive cardboard forum in Jubilee square before marching in tandem past BBC Radio Leicester and their own encampment. Turning left they pass Leicesters oldest building The Guildhall before a right turn into the Cathedral Gardens where they meet St George and his dragon in a unique meeting of eras and legend that could only happen at Leicesters Old Town Festival. Up past the KRIII centre and even the Romans get briefly held up by that most modern of chariots a delivery bike !. Now at the clock tower and into the Highcross Shopping Center where they surprise a number of shoppers with a loud chant. Marching onward along the high street they pass the Ride Leicester Roman themed bike ride with bikes and riders decorated in a Roman theme. Past the Highcross Pub and back into Jubilee Square the Leicester Viasakhi parade is passing through making for an interesting meeting of people that typifies Leicesters unique harmonious integration of people and cultures. We end on a group photo beneath the cardboard forum with @LeicesterCathedral bells ringing out.
