This year’s Falmouth Carnival 2025 featured the return of floats alongside the traditional marching parade, creating a truly spectacular event. Much of the organization is handled by the Falmouth Marine Band, which works tirelessly to support local Cornish groups and charities through their own fundraising efforts, collected under license during the parade, which is then 100% handed out and distributed under ballot in January of 2026.
Like any successful event, a carnival requires a committed team, a clear vision, and the drive to succeed—factors that inevitably come with costs. The goal of the Falmouth Carnival is to engage the community, uplift the spirits of attendees, and provide a platform to showcase our wonderful town to the world.
This fundraiser aims to cover the carnival's operational expenses and help enhance the experience for everyone involved in order that the true spirit of Falmouth can grow and endure.
