Bermondsey Carnival 2017

Bermondsey Carnival 2018 | Southwark Park | Saturday 30th June 2018 | 12pm to 8pm | FREE

Taking place in the beautiful Southwark Park, Bermondsey Carnival 2018 will bring an exciting programme of music, dance and events to Southwark Park this summer.

Organised in partnership with Bermondsey Beat and The Friends of Southwark Park with great live music, traditional funfair, delicious world foods, fun activities from community partners, a family zone and children’s dance tent – there will be plenty of activities and performances to entertain the whole family.

Bermondsey Carnival 2018 welcomes a fantastic line up of artists. 

As one of Southwark’s most popular annual events and now one of London’s best free summer events, Bermondsey Carnival will be returning to Southwark Park bandstand with a whole host of festival fun for everyone. The carnival is a great big family day out and once again Bermondsey Beat have created a great music programme for the occasion.

Alongside Bermondsey Beat’s fantastic array of live acts on the Bandstand, there is so much more to do for all the family.

The Bermondsey Carnival will have the Rumble in the Jumble, its very own mass jumble sale where you might be lucky enough to find a hidden treasure and Reuben Bonds Victorian Fun Fair with all sorts of rides and games to keep you busy throughout the day.

There will be plenty of street food and drinks outlets to choose from and many community organisations and local businesses will have a stall in the park.

Plus this year we have the Plaza Latina stage celebrating the Latin American community with music dance and food from South America.
