Community Spirit. Town Pride. Year-Round Events

Yarmouth Carnival Week is an annual community celebration in Yarmouth, Isle of Wight, with a week-long programme of family events, competitions, sports, entertainment and local traditions.
During Carnival Week, the marquee will be open throughout the week for collecting and submitting forms, finding out what is happening, and taking part in a variety of competitions and activities.
Best Decorated House
Keep an eye out for decorated houses and buildings around the town as residents get creative with this year’s theme, Under the Sea. You are welcome to let us know your preference ahead of judging for Best Decorated House.
Window Spotting
All participating shops will have stickers in their windows to show that there is something unusual to find. Take a look around town and see what you can spot.
Limerick Competition
Next year's first line is: TBC
Get creative and complete the limerick for your chance to take part.
Crossword Competition
Pick up a crossword competition form from the marquee and submit your completed entry during the week.

Any container will do, so let your imagination run wild.
Other Marquee Activities
