This year's Brighton Carnival parade is coming up soon on Sunday July 12th 2009.
A unique aspect of the Brighton Carnival is that all vehicles are fuelled by plant oil mixes, electric, solar and pedal power only.
The carnival aims to have a big, loud and exciting day in celebration of everyone who makes up Brighton & Hove. An estimated 15% of the city’s residents were born outside of the UK. Carnival provides an arena to explore and celebrate the variety of cultures that make it so vibrant.
There are also plenty of opportunities to get involved- for more details see Brighton Carnival.
