Little Eaton Carnival - 2025 The Centenary Celebration!
Advertisement
100 years after Little Eaton Carnival began, we're celebrating our centenary in style in 2025!
Our legendary parade through the village takes place between 12:30-2pm, ending out St Peter's Park. Watch out for some special additions for our 100th year - which includes our procession being lead by a Derbyshire Brass Band!
Once on the park make sure you allow time to get around all our attractions, which for the centenary include a traditional gallopers carousel and swing boats accompanied by a vintage fairground organ. There's heritage stalls such as the coconut shy, skittles, bash-a-rat and tombola, plus a penalty shoot out.
There's our very own craft fair, housed in it's own marque filled with local artisans.
Upstairs in the village hall you’ll find our carnival day tearoom, serving delicious homemade cakes, tea, coffee and cold drinks.
Underneath the village hall balcony, there’s the succulent smells from Phil the Grill’s BBQ to tempt you.
Make sure you bag a spot by the arena to catch live performances from:
Little Eaton Dance School
Masters and Maestros Taekwondo
Barlow Red Barrows
Trix Academy
Aspire Wrestling Alliance
Vision Dance School
And of course the very event our Carnival day was born from in 1925 the Sports Races. Bring your trainers! Juniors get underway at 2:30pm. Adult races at 3:15pm. Bragging rights last all year.
PARKING: We encourage everyone to walk, scoot or cycle that can. If you are bringing a vehicle there is limited blue badge parking at the village hall car park.
Standard parking is available at Tomlinson’s on Duffield Road (opposite the New Inn) on a first come, first served basis and if you know someone in Little Eaton with a drive - as them if you can park there for the afternoon.
