Nearly ready for the Carnival ?

Carnival might be about planning, making floats and costumes, decorating shop windows, selling raffle tickets, practising songs and dances... but who will win the Tug of War ?


It's fantastic to witness the preparation for the Radcliffe Carnival as you go around the village:

Shop Windows are taking on a new identity as they are decorated with their interpretation of  "The Show Must Go On" and I'm so glad not to be a judge this year. The judging will take place on Friday afternoon, so do go and look at all the fabulous entries.

I know that many children on their walk to school are eagerly watching the development of the latest of Steve Phair's incredible creations for the Boy's Brigade Walking Float. Not long until it is revealed and I am certain it will live up to its title of " This could be the greatest show in Radcliffe".

So don't miss out on one of Radcliffe's special community events,  be at The Grange from 12 or watch the procession come down from Golf Road at 1:00 and join us at the Grange. Admission is £2 for Adults with Children: Free, and there is a fantastic afternoon of entertainment planned.

Every part of village life will be represented: from the Playgroup in the Procession & the Infant School Choir in the Arena, to the U3A Ukulele  Band serenading you with familiar songs whilst you enjoy a cup of tea and delicious cakes served by the Womens Institute.

Artwork Challenge for Judges

Great Entries from the Infants & Junior School for the Radcliffe Charity Carnival Artwork Competition 

The judges for the Artwork Competition to design the poster and programme cover for the Radcliffe on Trent Carnival had a very difficult task, due to an outstanding number and high quality of entries.

Thank you very much to all the children who have produced such a fantastic variety of designs, and also the the staff at the schools for their support. 

Above is the poster designed by Ryan Shaw which we felt really captured the theme of 'The Show Must Go On' and was brilliantly colourful.
We'll do our best to display as many of the entries on Carnival Day ( 8th July), in the Grange Hall.

Quick reminder of timings:
  • 12:00 Fete at Grange Hall and the Grange opens
  • 1:00  Procession leaves Bingham Road and makes way through the village
  • 1:40  Programme of entertainment in the Grange & Grange Hall
  • 5:00  Carnival is over
If you have any questions about the Carnival please email us on RotCarnival@gmail.com

This blog will be regularly updated over the next 3 weeks to give you all the information you need to enjoy the day.

Radcliffe ....Can you better this ?

The Show Must Go On

Have you got Saturday July 8th -Radcliffe on Trent Carnival in your calendar/diary ? 

Last year despite torrential rain in the morning we had a fantastic colourful and lively procession through the village watched by hundreds of spectators. 
They all joined in the fun at the Grange with fabulous entertainment, sideshows and delicious refreshments.
Every part of our community was involved and the support was great from businesses around the village. 
In total the 2016 Carnival raised over £10,000 for local charities & community groups.
So let's do it again!
 
If are a community organisation or local charity and you would like to apply for a stall or be part of the Procession at the 2017 Radcliffe on Trent Carnival,  the forms are now available by clicking on the Stalls & Procession tab.

We'd love to see you there on July 8th and are very grateful for all the help we get throughout the year.
