The convoy is due to leave Folly Farm overflow car park at around 5.30 pm on the day and make its way to places such as Begelly, Sageston, Tenby, New Hedges and Saundersfoot.
The route will see vehicles travelling down to the A477 roundabout, through Broadmoor traffic lights to Carew Market roundabout, then to Gumfreston and into Tenby, where it will pass along the Fire Station on South Parade and down to Lower Park Road, before heading out of the seaside town and onto the village of New Hedges.
Saundersfoot will be the next destination before heading out via Sandy Hill Road, through Pentlepoir, Kilgetty and thenheading back through Begelly into Templeton, out to Princes Gate and ending with two laps of Narberth town.
The flurry of lit-up vehicles that tour the locality are sure to bring a smile to faces once again, and it’s all for a worthy cause, with this year’s nominated charity being The Velindre Cancer Centre supporting Welsh comedian and presenter Rhod Gilbert with his fundraising efforts.
With regards to donations, there will be collectors stationed along the route with buckets before the convoy arrives and also for some time after the convoy has passed through.
