Each year since the dawn of time (give or take a bit) we have chosen a fun theme for the Carnival Procession. For those interested in a trip down Memory Lane:
- 2019: Tell Me a Story
- 2018: Heroes and Villains
- 2017: Down on the Farm
- 2016: Magic!
- 2015: Red, White and Blue
- 2014: Brazil
- 2013: British Films
- 2012: Kids' TV
- 2011: Musicals
- 2010: China
- 2009: Jungle
- 2008: All at Sea
- 2007: Space
- 2006: Football Fever
- 2005: Wild West
But the Carnival Procession itself has been taking place even longer than that - we have records of the last twenty years' winners, plus second and third place winners for most years. If you happen to know details for the missing years (2000, 2002-2005), please let us know!
