Bridgwater Carnival 2022

Remember, Remember the fifth of November. Bridgwater Carnival 2022 was held last night after a three year absence, Europe’s biggest illuminated carnival is back!

Throughout the day, I was on parkway and managed to put a compilation of entries turning up and being check so do take a look at that video on YouTube.

Thoughts go with Lime Kiln CC who sadly broke down on route and Shambles CC who didn’t make it round the procession. The best of luck to those two for the rest of the season.
