Carnival celebrating Landmarks and Connections

 
10/06/2025 @ 10:28

 

Llanfair Caereinion is preparing for a ‘spectacular day of colour, creativity, and community’ when the Carnival returns on Saturday, June 21, with the exciting theme Landmarks and Connections.

A parade is expected to start at 12.30pm, with an array of floats, prams and walking participants in fancy dress set to provide a colourful start to a fun-packed day.

“You don’t have to live in Llanfair to take part, just come and join in,” a spokesperson told us.

“There are prizes galore and awards are given for the best adult, best child and most comical float. There is also a new prize for the best Young Farmers entry and our traditional prize for the best entry from one of the holiday parks.”

After the success of the entertainment provided at the last Carnival, the organising team have once again engaged a local owner of traditional fairground attractions to be present.

There will be inflatables again which include a disco dome, assault course, pole joust, human demolition and bungee run plus some special inflatables just for the under 5’s. 

There is a magic and illusion show for the kids, a bar for the adults and hot and cold food for all.
