Welcome to Gillingham Carnival Committee's Official Website!

Gillingham Carnival Committee is a voluntary group that organise and run Gillingham Carnival by raising funds through events, donations and street collections, in order to finance the annual Carnival and make donations to local organisations. New committee members are always welcome.

Gillingham Carnival 2020 CANCELLED. To return 9th October 2021.

Due to the ongoing threat of coronavirus the Carnival Committee has taken the difficult decision to cancel this years Carnival Processions which were due to take place on Saturday 10th October.

The committee believe this to be the right decision for the safety of carnival entrants and public alike.

Large gatherings are unlikely to be safe to hold for the foreseeable future although we hope to be able to hold some of our smaller Carnival Week Events later in the year.

However, this will be dependent on government guidance at the time.

AGM 27th March 2020 8pm at The Coronation Club. Buckingham Road, Gillingham - CANCELLED
