Cover Competition Pool A

Calling all Carnival fans - For this years 50th Carnival Programme we need to choose two faces to go on our cover. We thought it would be fun to get some help from all of you. We've had a look through last years pics (from the whole 2018 archive) and have two pools of photos - we need a winner from each pool. There is no favouritism on our part as to which clubs are represented, the principle criteria was staring at / interacting with the camera and a clear shot. The photo with the most likes on this album post only by 2100 on Saturday 21st Sept will be the Pool A winner. Pool B comp to follow. In the event of a draw it will be pics in a hat and a winner selected at random. Hope you all enjoy reminiscing on last years carnivals - happy clicking feel free to tag and share (only 53 days to go!) ... See more

Photos from Weston-super-Mare Carnival's post

A throw back Thursday, one of our committee members is in the photo, any takers on the year and who? Its wonderful to read the letter below, the true magic of carnival embodied in a couple of small paragraphs. We have another note with the recollections of one of the many volunteer street collectors, she finished it simply with "Thankyou for all you do for Weston-Super-Mare."
The local charities really do benefit from the generosity of the carnival visitors, the heart of carnival in practical action, so do start digging down the back of the sofa for lost coins, maybe do a "Stoptober" and stick the cash in a bucket on the night. We would love to hear your memories from carnivals past - is it possible that there someone who has seen all 50? ... See more

Grandstand Seating | Weston-super-Mare Carnival

After such a positive response to our recent Grandstand seating question we are delighted to share with you all that we have a Grandstand and the booking system is now live! It's a first come first served basis. To answer a particular point raised previously, there are no complimentary tickets, the good news is that there are early bird prices available. Following the link below will take you to our booking page. This is a tiered seating stand with no access for wheelchairs, however, listening to another point raised, although the whole route is accessible, we will have an area adjacent to the Grandstand for Wheelchairs. 64 days to go carnival fans!
