PRETTY little misses are invited to enter this year’s Stourbridge Carnival Princess competition.
Last year’s event attracted a record 42 entries - almost double the number that entered the previous year.
And organisers are hoping this year’s pageant, taking place on Carnival Sunday (July 3) will prove just as popular.
Aspiring princesses aged four to ten are invited to try out for the title.
Entrants can sign up on the day - at 10.15am - and judging will kick off at 10.30am.
There will be prizes for the winners, who will spend the rest of the day being treated like Royalty, and goody bags for every entrant taking part.
Last year saw pretty Brook Primary School pupil Faith Bowater walk away with the coveted princess title, plus £50 cash and a photographic shoot; and bubbly Jasmine Ruffle, a pupil at St James’s Primary in Wollaston, won the rosebud title.
Stourbridge author Miranda Dickinson, who will be guest of honour at this year’s carnival, will be judging the pageant.
