Carnival Sunday is a much-loved tradition with activities for everyone: previous years’ events have included stalls, workshops, street entertainers, a funfair, zorbs, chariot races … anything can happen!

The highlight is the carnival procession, where the streets of Monmouth are full of all sorts of colourful and creative floats, dancers and walkers.

The annual Monmouth Carnival takes place on the 24th July as part of the festival celebrations and organisers say this year’s parade will be a spectacular procession with a variety of walkers, dancers, musicians and vintage cars taking part. The procession will leave from Priory Street and St Mary’s Churchyard at 2pm and travel down through Monnow Street.

If you’d like to be part of the procession, please feel free to find more information and the registration process on the carnival website, MonmouthCarnival.com.
