Calling ALL creative locals! Sadly, many local carnivals have folded, due to a lack of enthusiasm and dwindling numbers of entrants.
Prizes to be Won!
Please don’t let Bridport, which is known for being an alternative / creative/ happening Town, suffer from such a fate. It is up to the inhabitants of the area to ENTER the Carnival – don’t leave it to ‘someone else.’ – and it is FREE to enter, and there are monetary prizes to be won!
Joining in can give participants wonderful practical skills and experiences, from organising & planning the entry, painting & decorating, sewing costumes, and working out routines – as well as a bit of socialising /fun, team building & leadership skills, It is also a great way of advertising your Club/ Hobby/ Business to others for FREE!
A bit of friendly rivalry is being encouraged this year, by the introduction of awards that can be won for best pub/hotel, best sports/dance, best school/youth organisation, best club (adult), as well as best overall, best costumes and most original entry.
There are many classes that can be entered – you do not have to enter a big float (but if you do, talk to Ben at Cains farm, as they are willing to lend out their curtain siders..) there are classes for walking entries, non-motorised entries, mini floats / mobility scooters, or supporters who want to join in, but not be judged! – Hopefully everyone catered for!
