Sheringham Carnival has made some changes this year

The plans for Sheringham Carnival this year are well underway and what a Carnival it is going to be. This year sees us keeping our main events and adding even more, just a little re-jig of the days and voila, Sheringham Carnival 2010. We have live music every night on Lifeboat Plain, a Carnival Fancy Dress Party, Bowls Tournament, Darts, Carnival Flower and Produce Show, the popular AQUACKIC Duck Race, and so much more, something for everyone to enjoy.


In June we are planning to hold a Black Tie Fundraiser to start the ball rolling. Details of this will be announced shortly. Our Carnival Queen Selection is being held on 4th May at the Crown Inn, so come on lovely ladies of Sheringham, get your names down or enter on the night.

By popular demand, on Saturday 31st July the Carnival Car Boot is back on the Common in Sheringham. Sunday 1st August at The Leas we have a full programme of events from 10am onwards. At 2pm Chris Coubrough will be Crowning our Carnival Queen. The day ends with live music from Kick the Can on Lifeboat Plain.

Carnival Day, Wednesday 4th August, and the main streets will be thronging with Street Entertainers, Stalls, Music and last years favourite Anti-Static our Nelson Statue who this year appears as Charlie Chaplin. The great Battle of the Bands, a Talent Show to find our local entertainers and the Children’s Fancy Dress all take place today.


Saturday 7th August is a big day at the Sports Ground. We have a fantastic array of entertainment to offer you including Nick Lee’s Family Circus, Tug-of-War, Five a side football and Trix ‘n’ Stix. The Parade has been moved to this day and will leave the Common at 6.30pm and make its way to the Sports Ground. There will then be further entertainment until the Fireworks Display. Tonight we round off with live music in the beer tent, from the legendary Buster James Band and “All Night Long” disco from Proud Nightclub, Camden Town, it is going to ROCK!

Our web site www.sheringhamcarnival.co.uk has the complete programme and we are still adding events, so keep an eye on it for the next exciting instalment of Sheringham Carnival 2010!!!!
