Skellynight 2002
"Almost 24 hours after, we can't stop talking about it...the lights, sounds and fireworks in such torrential rain the technicians must have been from the set of the Lord of the Rings! The Japanese tourists next to us were very impressed. It made us very proud indeed to be here”.
Christine Barry, Cliftonville
Our final Skellynight followed a similar programme of development as the two previous years events, and the performance attracted a massive audience on the night. The parade and beachfront finale around the Harbour were spectacular, heightened by the extreme weather conditions lashing the performers and audience en route.
The celebratory development had been a great success in Ramsgate, it had created an identity for Ramsgate to build on and identified a large and loyal audience for community events. Setting the bar high for subsequent development work in the town.
