Cholmondeley Pageant of Power 2012 dates announced

The annual Pageant of Power at the Cholmondeley Estate on the North Shropshire border will take place a month earlier than usual in 2012 in order to break their run of wet weather.

The fifth year of the Pageant will take place from Friday 15 June to Sunday 17 June and will feature a range of new displays on land, water and in the air.

James Hall, Event Director at the Cholmondeley Pageant of Power said: “Every Pageant has been a remarkable success and we’ve seen year-on year increases in visitor numbers, sponsors, exhibitors and the number of displays and attractions.

“The Pageant has grown very fast, but one element that has remained constant throughout the first four years has been the poor weather.

“Analysis of the last 10 year weather patterns show that in this region, July has been a third wetter than June and so the decision has been made to bring the event forward a month.”
