Seems like The Art Deco Trust and Charlie Chaplin have come to a parting of the ways. After 15 years of participation Charlie is passed his used-by-date.

Here is a letter sent to Charlie today.

Hope all is well with you.

We were contact by Tracey and Colin Parker yesterday about bringing their little hot rod car for Charlie Chaplin to use on the parade.

Please be aware that you will not be able to participate in the Vintage Car Parade in either the little hot rod or walking. This event is managed by us and with the immense H&S involved cannot allow outside participants to take part.

Also I thought it would be useful to let you know where you are able to access during the Festival to do Charlie Chaplin.

Sound Shell (Friday night to Sunday)
Emerson Street (Friday night to Sunday)
Marine Parade (Friday night to Sunday)
You will not be granted access to any indoor venues during the Festival.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks
Glen
Glen Pickering
Festival Director
