The Carnival is made possible by the dedication of a hard-working group of individuals who gel to form a team which is busy throughout the year to stage this event.

It costs a lot of money to run these events and that is another side that people do not see - the fund raising.

What they want to see is people enjoying the fruits of their efforts - So please attend and show them you care as much about the Newport Carnival as they do.
