Come to our celebration of Woolwich on Saturday 14 September. The streets will be alive with costumes, dancing, and music in a full day of carnival fun.

Local schools and community groups have been getting creative, and ready to bring Woolwich alive with a fantastic carnival parade.

The parade will set off from the Royal Arsenal at 2pm, arriving in General Gordon Square at 3pm.

The main stage will feature music and dance acts from 12pm to 8pm. Expect high energy and diversity: steel pans, soca, reggae and more! Bring your carnival vibes and don’t forget your dancing shoes!
