Blyth Town Council’s much-loved annual carnival is back – and promises to be more spectacular than ever. Once again, the event is being organised by Blyth-based charity Leading Link, who are pulling out all the stops for a fun-filled day on Saturday 5 July.

This year’s carnival will take place around the Keel Row Car Park and comes with a circus theme, offering entertainment for all ages and bringing the community together in true carnival spirit.

James Palmer from Leading Link said:

“One of the highlights of our year is organising the annual Blyth Carnival which this year is on Saturday 5 July. We have a wealth of experience in event coordination and a track record of consistent growth, and we’re well-positioned to develop and expand the carnival to new heights.

“Working closely with Blyth Town Council, we aim to enhance the overall experience of the carnival. Our community links with businesses, schools, community groups and residents’ associations, together with our growing team of Young Leaders, will all go towards ensuring the successful delivery and operation of the event. This year we have a circus theme which will be fun for all.”

The event is proudly supported by main sponsor Copper Cars, a fast-growing local business founded just two years ago by Scott Taylor. Since its formation, Copper Cars has built a reputation not just for reliable service, but for its commitment to giving back to the community.

Scott Taylor commented:

“Blyth Carnival is a brilliant event that brings people together and showcases the best of our town. Supporting it was an easy decision for us – we’re proud to be based in Blyth, and even prouder to help make events like this possible. At Copper Cars, we believe in supporting local charities and good causes, and this partnership with Leading Link and Blyth Town Council is something we’re really excited about.”

Organisers are encouraging everyone to save the date, join the parade, and enjoy the carnival atmosphere as the streets of Blyth come alive with colour, music, and community spirit.
