Volunteer at
Bath Carnival
Join our award winning volunteer team and be part of Bath’s biggest community project! We need 100 lovely people to help us steward our family festival and marshal the carnival procession. Shifts are just 3hrs long, no experience required, and you can do it in pairs!
Meanwhile our internships offer valuable experience and training to early career artists, budding event managers, photographers and creative writers. Email us HERE if interested.
As a sponsor you get the amazing feeling of knowing you’re keeping Carnival alive in Bath, plus you’ll receive a host of benefits for you, your staff, customers and clients.
Environmental Sustainability
We encouraged spectators and participants to travel to the Carnival by foot, public transport or to cycle wherever possible.
Our team collected environmental data from performance groups as well as the general public throughout the day.
We will now be using Creative Green Tools as part of the Julie’s Bicycle initiative to record this benchmark data, so we can better understand the project’s impact on the environment, as we strive to improve year-on-year.
Our school workshops now incorporate important narratives around the loss of habitats around the world, endangered species and the impact of human activity on the environment.
The 2023 procession highlighted these issues through a collaborative community performance!
