The Brighton Carnival
This years Brighton Carnival, will be held on Sunday July 12 and organisers are calling for people to join in the parade. The carnival is the UK’s first low-carbon parade, where people are urged to dance and walk on the parade rather than use trucks.
It will be a day of bright colours and music, including Caribbean soca, calypso and steel pan, Brazilian beats and New Orleans soul.
Last year there were more than 600 people on the parade with 15,000 spectating.
The carnival raises money to help local community and voluntary groups, youth clubs, musicians and many more local organisations and individuals.
The purpose of the parade is to celebrate everyone who makes up the Brighton & Hove community. If you want to join the parade, contact Brighton Carnival as soon as possible on:
