Carnival Show Field

 The carnival field is full of fun affordable activities, live entertainment, family entertainment and a wide selection of food and drink outlets 🧃 🍔 

This is a programme only event, like all event venues there is a capacity restriction, for health and safety reasons. We sold out of programmes before the event so be sure to follow us on our socials to know how to get one for next year. 🎟️ 

 We have multiple options for you at the carnival show field. Plenty of different bars selling alcohol, soft drinks and great food options for you 🍟 🍔 🍕 

All traders that have signed up with us are on the field only. Any traders on the street during carnival day have not been authorised by Posset Events CIC. 

 The extremely popular and impressive 4wall, 7.3m high mobile climbing tower will be back for Carnival 2026
