Infatables pump up Jacaranda Thursday

By Tim Howard

Jacaranda Thursday celebrations in Grafton hit their peak in the post pandemic period with crowds packing the market-stall flled CBD on Thursday.

And after a morning of fun and frivolities in Prince St and environs, the crowds focked into Market Square to watch local business houses compete for the the Gold and Silver cups for business shows.

Infatable costumes hit peak usage on centre stage with three of the eight performances employing the devices. But it was Clarence Valley Council which was able to defend its Gold Cup win in 2022 with a show stopping performance.
