Carnival Fringe 2023
Our Carnival Fringe returned in June 2023 with a series of events celebrating community, achievements and the Caribbean legends of our past, present and future.
Offering a rich tapestry of live performances, mouthwatering food, cinema screenings, panel discussions and more, it brought an extra sprinkle of vibrancy to the Carnival festivities – as well as being an opportunity to celebrate and reflect on our culture in the run up to Carnival Day.

Legends of Windrush: Human Library
In celebration of 75 years of Windrush, this event inspired by Human Libraries featured storytelling from local people and community pioneers.
Our guest speakers became Human Books as they shared their personal experiences surrounding the Windrush Generation, using the 2023 Carnival theme ‘Learning from Legends’ to reflect on the many trailblazers from the Caribbean community and how they’ve impacted our lives.
