Together – Let’s keep the Carnival Thriving
Carnival is a special occasion of happy celebration, fun and enjoyment – making smiles and happy memories – promoting positive vibes and social connection. Although the main event takes place over the LAST WEEKEND IN JULY, it is also about a whole host of fun community events we put on throughout the year, that carnival feel-good experience depends as much on you as it does us – be it Christmas Eve visits from Santa Claus, a formal special event, themed social gatherings, tasty homemade sweet and savoury fundraisers, a coffee morning, wheelbarrow race, “afternoon tea”, music quiz. There is something for everyone and all the money raised from these Watchet Live CIC events help us to donate to good causes and keep going and growing. We very much appreciate your continuing support and kindness. Check out our upcoming events below. We look forward to seeing you.
