Yes, community spirit, civic pride, yet again.
I do think you should think about charging though, we're having a roman day here,as the last battle of boudica was here and instead of being in the town square(yes it's like trumpton) we've moved it to the carnival field. It's £5 per adult, I think thats steep, but the romans obviously don't think so. SO if your event is decent and it should be for 12,000 why not consider it.
The only council that funds anything here is the town council, usually out of the 714 pot.

Can you not involve the shops with these events?
