St Pauls Carnival 2022

Jun 28, 2022

St Pauls Carnival is iconic. People come from all over the country to enjoy one of the most vibrant cultural experiences the city of Bristol has to offer.

As with most events around the country, St Pauls Carnival was postponed year after year due to Covid 19. Many were hoping and expecting the carnival to come back with a bang this year however, due to the lack time to raise enough funds the carnival is going to look slightly different this year.
