The Carnival machine once again geared up for a family fun day out on Monday 7th May. Usually the first major event of the year in Ilkley.
With so much going on this year - The Diamond Jubilee, The Summer Olympics and Euro 2012, it has been hard to choose a theme, so we have decided to incorporate all these major events and celebrations. The chosen theme for 2012 is 'The Summer Of Celebrations' lets hope it creates a very sporty, regal and olympic parade!
A new event for this year is the Under 9's Football Tournament, more details soon.
Over the last 25 years the carnival has raised money that has been given back to the community to help fund local projects, organisations, sports clubs and help enhance local facilities for everyone.
Every year we are lucky enough to get a fantastic response from local clubs and organisations that help on the day is invaluable and without that help the carnival wouldn't be possible.
If you would like to offer your support and help in whatever way or are interested in becoming a beneficiary then please select on the appropriate link for more information. We are always looking for new members to join the Carnival committee so if you are interested then please contact the secretary Maria-Teresa Hunt.
Please support this wonderful local event. Ilkley's May Day Carnival really has become an important date for thousands of people and with your help we will be able to make another beneficial year for good causes.
