With over 130 years of history as one of Southport’s longest established leisure companies, the name 'Silcock' is synonymous with Southport's tourism industry.

The event starts at 10:30am with Serena Silcock-Prince talking about Silcock’s Carousel which turns 125 years old this year. The iconic ride has been at Southport Pier for over 30 years but its history goes back to the reign of Queen Victoria.

Finally, at 11:30am, Justin Prescott will be talking about Silcock’s vehicle heritage, from Scammels to traction engines driving the famous Silcock fairs around the country.

The Pier Restaurant will be open from 10am with a special breakfast offer available, and visitors are welcome to stay for lunchtime refreshments after the talks.

📆 Date: Friday 18th September
⏰ Time: 10:30am
