This year, under the powerful theme "Our Voices, Our Future," we are bringing together the absolute best of Woolwich’s vibrant culture. It is a day dedicated to celebrating our community's rich diversity, while empowering our younger generation to lead the carnival spirit into the future.

Expect a sensational day filled with live music, energetic dance, delicious food, and our spectacular community carnival parade. Even better, we have mapped out a brand-new parade route that finishes with a massive celebration right in the heart of the Woolwich Works Courtyard.

Our outdoor stage at Woolwich Works will burst into life at 3:00 PM to welcome the parade with a high-energy reception. From there, the party keeps going until 8:00 PM with an incredible lineup of local musicians, dancers, and community performers.

Come along, support our youth, and dance the afternoon away. Book your free tickets now to secure your spot and receive the latest event updates!

If you would like to join the carnival procession to Woolwich Works, please meet at Woolwich Town Centre (Love Lane entrance) at 1.30pm.

Woolwich Carnival is part of the Royal Greenwich Festivals 2026
