Swanage Carnival, Swanage

A mammoth eight-day carnival takes over the picturesque coastal town of Swanage each year, thanks to a dedicated team of volunteers. Known for its vibrant atmosphere, diverse entertainment, and community spirit, the carnival attracts visitors from near and far.

This year’s theme was ‘Jurassic Rocks,’ and it captivated a record-breaking crowd to its vibrant music, entertainment, and community spirit.

In 2024 Swanage Carnival raised a staggering £30,900 and donated it to 23 charities and organisations that support the local community.
