Carnival Week
The ‘High Down Dads Book Club’ provided
some hilarious (and at times nervous)
entertainment before they walked away with
the trophy.
Although the IAKO provided plenty of laughs
and fun, team spaces and time on the day
was very limited. To overcome this, and
make it more inclusive for children, we are
launching the new ‘Family Edition’ that will take place at the Show Field on Saturday 6th June 2026. Due to the scheduling of this
event, we can bring back carnival week!
Historically the coronation day used to be part
of carnival week, however with the edition of
the programme, Royal events are required to
be held earlier in the year before the
programmes go to print.
We are asking businesses if they would like
to host a carnival evening during ‘Carnival
week’ this can be carnival themed nights from
quiz nights to live entertainment.
If you are able to host an evening, we will
promote you as an official carnival week
event, that’s it! no strings attached, we just
ask that you help bring the community
together, if you would like to donate towards
carnival after your event that would be most
welcome however it is not an obligation
High Street After Party
To finish the week carnival celebrations, from
7pm on Carnival Day we are encouraging a
High Street After Party! The feedback we
received from doing this during our first event,
was all positive by enthusiastic pub owners
as well as our community, We would like to
make the After Party a new carnival tradition.
Can you help us? Again, no strings attached,
we will promote your event posters on our
social media platforms and website.
Event posters can be uploaded to us using the form below
