What we do
Sandown Carnival runs a series of free public events each year.
We put on three summer carnivals, a regatta, a new year fireworks display, a car treasure hunt and more!
Sandown Carnival events and participation in other town carnivals costs the association up to £50,000 each year. Only a very small percentage of this is realised through grants or formal donations - the majority is generated by our fundraising outlet "The Carnival Shop" situated on the High Street in Sandown.
Sandown Carnival Association runs as an unincorporated association following our constitution, available here.
Sandown Carnival is staffed entirely by unpaid volunteers who help in a wide range of roles. From organising our annual events to helping out on the day and manning our fundraising outlet.
