Tarporley Carnival 2025

Just look at what's on offer this year:

• The Parade is back - This is the 31st year that  the Carnival has been brought to you by Tarporley and District Rotary Club!

• Great Music - Our headline act this year is a Robbie Williams tribute, and whatever your taste, we'll have a wide variety of entertainers on stage throughout the afternoon, all to entertain you!

• Food & Drink - BBQ, Burgers, Beer, Prosecco and Tea Tents!

• Stalls, Entertainers, Childrens Rides and a Climbing Wall!

• Best of all ... the proceeds* are donated to local and international charities and organisations.

Tarporley Carnival is organised and run by the Members and Friends of Tarporley and District Rotary Club, helped and supported by members of the Tarporley 41 club, Tarporley Independent Traders and many other volunteers. Most of our stallholders are local charities, community organisations or micro businesses - all are grateful for your support. We would like to acknowledge the financial support of our sponsors:

Hall Livesey Brown      /      Robinsons     /     Instinct/Engima.  

We are also grateful to Tarporley Parish Council for covering the costs of road closures for the parade, everybody that advertises in our programme brochure and the many local businesses and organisations that have donated their services, either without charge or with a generous discount including: 

The Rising Sun for the supply of drinks and the Mobile bar. NMC Design+Print for designing and printing the brochure. Inner Wheel for staffing the Teas and Cakes Tent. Tarporley Scouts for lending the large tent. Nick Brookes Group for providing a large rubbish skip free of charge and recycling the waste. Cheshire Farm for lending us the chiller van, Carol White (of Caroline White Photography) for being our official photographer, and St.Helen’s Church Bell Ringers for their lunchtime peel.

It takes an enormous amount of work by our members and volunteers to make Carnival happen - the planning started back in October, and everyone will be out from early to late on Carnival Day to make sure that all our 2000+ visitors are kept safe, entertained and well supplied with food and drink (and of course we clear up afterwards - by 8pm you wouldn't know that anything had taken place).

If you would like to help out on the day (it's great fun, even just for a few hours) or if you can support the Carnival in some other way, please email Rotarian Jim Webb - enquiries@tarporleyrotary.org.uk

* The net proceeds of the Carnival (after deducting costs) are distributed to charities and other organisations through the Tarporley & District Rotary Club Trust Fund (registered charity 1032689).
