Last minute preparations for Clipper festival along Derry's quayside

It's almost here.

Final preparations are being made for the start of the Clipper festival in Derry.

Thousands of people will gather along the city's quayside area over the next 10 days.

The festival has been organised to celebrate the arrival in Derry of the yachts taking part in the Clipper Around the World sailing race.

The yachts are not expected to arrive in Derry until Monday.

However, the festival gets underway tomorrow with the Music City celebrations throughout the city.

See our video for a glimpse of the ongoing work along the quayside today in preparations for the Clipper festival.
