This year in the carnival we have received numerous local entries which include 5 primary schools .which have never entered into the carnival that i can recall in my life even though i have lived here all my life .Also the royal British legion are involved and the museum which i believe again have not entered in previous years so when we chose Tiverton Town Community Carnival we hoped that the community would get involved but this year has astounded us by having so many locals entering .
Having some charities entering has lead us to open a new category for best charitable entry .
Also we have 4 troupes of majorettes and the Tiverton Town band aswell as some young farmers groups .There of course will be some larger floats which have entered not to mention the Devon air ambulance helicopter ,the full size replica spitfire and the RNLI are making an appearance in the market and then in the carnival .
There will be things going on in the day in the pannier market the Spitfire will be there for the day then entering in the carnival a hog roast ,chocolate fountain ,Gate of India are doing samosa 's and things ,Hot dogs and burgers in Phoenix lane also there will be donuts and candyfloss and at Tesco,s car park will be Devon Air ambulance also in the end of town Andrea's mobile catering will be by Travis Perkins later on in the day .
So to end we are hoping that this event will go off with a huge success and hopefully put Tiverton back on the map and the message put across is that this will say that the people in Tiverton are a really a community that puts in all to put on a good display .

This years Carnival was very good, much better than the last few years. The 2 long floats were very impresive and I was amazed that they made it through town! The new Carnival King and Queen were very handsome and beautiful and I am so proud that Castle school won 1st place in their category. Congratulations to all the winners and a massive thank you to the new Carnival commitee for a FANTASTIC Carnival this year.
