Put your best float forward!

This year the carnival society are excited to introduce a new class of float, designed for local people and groups who would like to have a go!  All you need is a good idea, a trailer or flatbed truck and some creativity.  You could make your costumes, and design your float in the last few weeks or days before the carnival – it’s all about having a go!

Why enter?

Perhaps you want to promote an upcoming event, let everyone know about your organisation, or summon up the spirit of carnival – dress up, entertain people and help raise money for local charitable organisations.

You’ll have a great night too … and you’ll get £120 entrance money.

Look at what Ansford Academy achieved in just 4 weeks last year!

The safety bits and pieces

Your trailer has to be under 2.55 meters wide and under 7 metres long.  The build has to be within the width and length of the trailer – so nothing is overhanging.  The towing vehicle needs to be taxed, tested and have the driver has public liability insurance.  The driver needs a suitable license and insurance. You will also need to have wheel chocks, a fire extinguisher and everyone on the float has to be tied on.
