A true community event, Melkshams Carnival brings everybody together - held on the same day as the Party in the Park, a perfect way to spend a summers day with the events between them seeing you into the late hours...

The history of Melkshams Carnival can be tracked back to at least 1907, and probably much further than that.

You can visit the Gallery section of see some photos of years gone by, but the basics of the Carnival has stayed the same for many years, with a annual Royalty competition, Spot the Oddity through the towns shops and other events that make the Carnival fun for the whole family!

The Carnival is organised by a purely voluntary committee, a mainly new group this year with some fresh faces, new ideas and a wealth of knowledge and experience of other events held in the town.
