Description:
The 52nd Hanwell Carnival promises to be bigger and better this year with plenty for kids and adults alike, including live bands, community acts, charities, fun fair and children’s activities.

If you are up and about in the morning watch the procession as it makes its way from Hanwell Community Centre (leaving at 11.30) and makes its colourful way to the main park.

Brand new for this year, the Jamming tent, where local musicians can turn up with an instrument of their choice and strut their stuff.

There’s loads for the kids to do – fairground, given more space this year, petting zoo, children’s rides, rockwall and bungee trampolines and Hanwell’s own Kirby’s Flying Ballet.

On the Music Stage: Xantone Blacq, Et tu Bruce, Melody Nelson, Cairo Sun,Sub Deluxe and Dub Knob.

And over on the Community Arena an eclectic mix of dance, sport and vocal talent, including Ealing Street Dance, Cuban boxing, Ebony Steel Band and Ealing Rock Choir.

No carnival would be complete without a dog show, with a new fancy dress competition for all those doggie divas out there.

The carnival enables charities to raise their profile and raise much needed funding, those taking part include uber-local groups Hanwell Homeless Concern, Meadow House Hospice, Hanwell Neighbourly Care and faith groups; national RSPCA, Cancer Research and international - Friends of Sebastiya and Compassion Service Society of India to name but a few.

A true community event run entirely by volunteers.
