Tarporley Carnival 2026
This years Carnival is on Saturday 11th July!
Welcome to Tarporley Carnival 2026!
This is the 31st year of Tarporley Carnival and we're celebrating it in true Country & Western style!
The Parade starts from Burton Square at 12.30, with lots to watch and cheer as they make their way down the High Street and onto the Carnival Field.
At 1.15pm we have the Grand Opening, with the crowning of this years Carnival Queens. It's then on with the music with regular favourites, Karamba Samba, The Jeff Lewis Jazz Quartet and of course, Line Dancing from The Shimmy Shaker Line Dance Club (with lots of help from the audience). On stage, Andrea Pattinson tops the bill, appearing as Dolly Parton, singing many of her biggest hits!
On the field we have the Climbing Wall, a Rodeo Bull Ride, childrens Didi Cars, a Jungle Run, have-a-go Circus Skills and a Stilt Walker, as well as a wide variety of other stalls around the field to keep everyone happy.*
Need reviving? Whether you are looking for ice creams, BBQ food, pizza or cakes, you’ll find them here, and more. If you’re feeling thirsty, head for the Beer Tent, or the Prosecco/Cocktail Bar. Of course, you may prefer afternoon tea and cake or a soft drink instead - the choice is yours!
