Carnival Details
Parkgate Carnival is back and promises to be even bigger and better! The 8th of July will see lots of old favourites returning, including Batala Mersey's drum beating opening, stallholders galore, music, entertainment and much much more!
Our 2017 Carnival had over 5,500 visitors and although it wasn't our primary aim we raised a fantastic £9,400 to fund even more children with life limiting illnesses going on a trip of a lifetime to Lapland. Our aim is to deliver a family fun day which has something of interest for every member of the family.
The Carnival will include a Craft Fair; Food Fair, Kid’s Amusements, Music Festival, Entertainment Arena, Art & Crafts Competition, Lifestyle Hub as well as much much more. We are hoping for a repeat of the number of visitors to the event again.
With FREE parking, £2 entry for adults and children under the age of 12 accompanied by an adult FREE we're determined to deliver value for money. Included in the entry costs are the Entertainment Arena, the Music Festival, a Storyteller, JD Aerial Fitness Demonstrations, Police & Fire Service Interactive Exhibits, the Art & Crafts Competition Exhibition and so much more to feast your eyes on.
