This years Launceston carnival royalty were chosen at the Eagle House Hotel. Many thanks to all that turned out to support the event and to the lovely youngsters who entered the competition. The judges were Margaret Young, Mayor, and Nicola Gilbert, Mayoress, who certainly had a difficult job choosing. Also thanks to our Royalty sponsor - Costa and to Margaret, for presenting the Salvers and gifts.
This year our Carnival Queen is Isabelle Gribble and she will be supported by our Carnival Princess Phoebe Hinks, and Carnival Prince Blake Shaw. 
Well done to you all! We are sure you will be great ambassadors for the carnival and the town!
