St Pauls Carnival 2025 Update! 📣

St Pauls Carnival is BACK this July! 🎉 While 2025 was originally set to be a full-scale Carnival year, like many cultural organisations we’re having to adapt to the challenging environment the events sector has experienced since Covid.

That means we're back this year with a scaled-down but exciting programme that brings Carnival arts and culture to the city and continues to celebrate the roots of Caribbean heritage.

Expect music, food, performances, and community celebrations, including:
✨ Elders’ Brunch – Honouring our community’s elders on Carnival morning
🥁 Schools Programme – Costume-making, drumming, and dance workshops for young people
🎶 Celebrations of Caribbean Culture – Showcasing the sounds, flavours, and creativity that makes Carnival special

We know this isn’t the full-scale event many hoped for, but we’re working to make sure Carnival is sustainable and has a legacy for years to come. Let’s celebrate together and keep the Carnival energy alive!
