Plans are afoot for Redbridge Carnival 2011



This years Redbridge Carnival is set to be a real humdinger!  Our Executive Committee has grown significantly and we have secured funding that will go towards some great additions for you this year.

The event will be held on two days Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th September from 12:00 - 19:00 at Valentines Park.

In addition to the main stage with multicultural performances including Sofia Hayat again this year and Bollywood legend Honey Kalaria, Rascals, Jam Dance Academy, Panultimate Steel Pan band and many more, we will also be providing:


  • A football tournament for all ages organised by Air Football
  • A Kabbadi (Asian Wrestling) Tournament 
  • A Gataka (Sikh Sword Fighting) Performance on field 
  • A snake demonstration
  • Drama
  • Community stalls,
  • International food stalls
  • Go Kart Racing course
  • Free Multisports taster
  • Harry Parrish's Funfair
This years procession will start at Ilford Town Centre at 12:00 on Saturday 10th September 2011.  The route for the procession will be the same as last year.  Walkers start in the town centre and will travel along the High  Road to the Former Seven Kings Swimming Baths Car Park, From here a 10 minute break will ensue and a mixed float and foot procession will leave travel back along the High Road, onto Winston Way and then travel back in the Town Centre, along Clements Road following the bus route right at the top onto Cranbrook Road.  Eventually they will turn right at Coventry Road and terminate at Valentines Park.

We expect our biggest following for the procession and already have more participants than ever before!

Don't miss out and book this in your diaries now!
