Call me biased but this is definitely the best week of the year with an amazing night Saturday hats off to the organisers, it's 100% worth a visit
HARTLAND CARNIVAL 2026
Well then, the countdown’s properly started.
We’ve got a whole week of entertainment planned for visitors and villagers alike, leading up to the Grand Procession and Party in The Square on Saturday 8 August.
From quiz nights and bingo to skittles, Carnival Royalty and Fun Figures, there’s enough going on to keep everyone busy, or at the very least mildly distracted from arguing about the weather.
Whether you’ve lived here all your life or you’re visiting our little corner of North Devon for the first time, we’d love to see you join in the fun and community spirit that makes Hartland Carnival what it is.
As always, plans can change a little as we get closer, so do keep an eye on our page and website for the latest updates, timings and announcements:

And while we’re here, we really do want to make a special mention of the incredible local businesses, organisations and individuals who have sponsored and supported Hartland Carnival over the years. Quite simply, without them, Carnival Week would not be what it is today.
Every banner put up, every event organised, every bit of entertainment booked and every smile created during Carnival Week is helped along by the generosity of our sponsors and supporters. Year after year they’ve backed the community, helped keep traditions alive and made sure Hartland Carnival continues to bring people together.
We are genuinely so grateful for every single contribution, whether it’s a major sponsorship, a raffle prize, equipment, advertising support or simply giving up time to help. The support we receive means the world to us and to the whole village.
If you’ve ever thought about sponsoring or volunteering Hartland Carnival, now is the perfect time to get involved. We’re always looking for new supporters to help us make 2026 even bigger and better, and every bit of support really does make a huge difference. Sponsoring Carnival is not only a brilliant way to support the local community, but also a fantastic opportunity to promote your business to thousands of visitors and residents throughout Carnival Week and across our social media and website.
For a little bit longer you can check out our 2025 sponsor information on the Hartland Carnival Sponsors page on our website. You could even see your name in lights on social media and our website if you become a 2026 sponsor.
To all our past and present sponsors THANK YOU. Your kindness, generosity and community spirit help keep Hartland Carnival alive, and we honestly couldn’t do it without you.
Now let’s just hope for sunshine, bunting in the streets and another proper good Carnival Week in Hartland.
