Luton International Carnival 2026 — It’s Official!
We’re thrilled to announce that Luton International Carnival is back for 2026 — and it’s bringing the colour, the music, and the magic right home to where it all began!
Thanks to the incredible support of our Headline Sponsor, Luton Rising , and partner, Luton Council, the Carnival will return to its former home: Wardown Park — the perfect backdrop for a day filled with joy, creativity, and community spirit.
Date: Sunday 24 May 2026
Time: 12pm – 6pm
Venue: Wardown Park, Luton, LU2 7HL.
The carnival parade will go from Luton Town Centre to Wardown Park.
Expect dazzling costumes, infectious rhythms, and that unmistakable Luton Carnival energy that brings generations together. Whether you’re 5 or 85, this is a family celebration for everyone — a day to dance, laugh, reconnect, and make memories. To note: Those younger than age 5 and older than age 85 are all still welcome!!! 
The countdown continues! See you there!
