We have celebrated May with a Pageant in Walton since its revival in 1969.  The modern pageantry follows ancient traditions, and symbolises the departure of winter and the coming of spring.

The May Queen is escorted by her six girl attendants and the Spirit of May, the Chimney Sweep, who sweeps away the winter gloom, and Jack of the Green who carries the crown for his Lady.  The new May Queen is crowned by Chloe and will perform various duties throughout her reign.

A service will be held at St. Peter's Church, Walton-on-the-Hill at 11.00 am on Sunday 18th May 2025 featuring the May Queen and her Attendants

We hope you will enjoy your day with us

All proceeds from Walton May Pageant will be donated to national and local charities.
