Description: All the information you need about Burwell Village Carnival held each June.
Having returned with a successful Burwell Carnival once again in 2022, following an enforced 2 year absence due to the covid pandemic, we're now planning for Carnival 2023 on Saturday 1st July, 1-11.30pm, Burwell Recreation Ground . Last year the event was attended by over 3500 people, and we're looking forward to hopefully attracting a similar number of attendees. Watch this space and our Facebook event page for further details.
Carnival kicks off with our themed parade, 2023 is 'International Days" , from 1.30pm, making it's way to the Recreation Ground (open from 1pm). The parade makes it's way down The Causeway, turning left into Hythe Lane and straight onto The Recreation Ground up to our stage area 2pm (ish). Parents of kids involved, family/friends and fellow Burwellians will hopefully line the route and and welcome the parade onto Burwell Recreation Ground.
On the recreation ground you'll find our Carnival bar, stage and field entertainment/displays (including Grantanbrycg - Anglo Saxon/Viking/Norman re-enactment group ) , fair rides (large - dodgems/ferris wheel & smaller ones) & inflatable attractions (assault course, helter skelter, last one standing) and food vendors (see list below), along with so much more to enjoy on-the-day.
