Bristol is edging closer to the full return of St Pauls Carnival for the first time in three years. The organisation is planning more than a week's worth of events leading up to Carnival Day on July 1, 2023, where colour, music and culture will flood the streets of St Pauls once again.
Both 2020 and 2021 saw the move to online-only events due to the Covid pandemic. In 2022, the organisation announced that a full public event of the size and complexity of St Pauls Carnival wasn't viable, instead hosting a music, arts and community event, 'Back A Yard'.
So what can we expect for the triumphant return of St Pauls Carnival 2023? Here's everything we know so far about this year's plans.
