I was thrilled to meet Rachel from Brighton Carnival last weekend at GreenWave Festival who has invited the EcoEvents team along to conduct a gap analysis and report on the day’s activities this Sunday the 13th July. Given their focus on low carbon and minimal waste I am sure that they are already half way there but I am sure we can help make next year’s Carnival even more sustainable. It’s great to see show organisers really stepping up to the plate and understanding that sustainability is synonymous with success.
Oh yes - and we will be getting on the road with the world famous Mandinga Arts, parading to the fine timbre of samba band Uniao da Mocidade and sampling delicious food along the way! See www.brightoncarnival.co.uk for more info and come make a noise!
For sure, Brighton Carnival has big ambitions. Let me quote: “The vision is to have a weekend of carnival on the seafront in Brighton, that in the future rivals Notting Hill, Trinidad, Rio and other famous carnivals around the world.” No false modesty there but I am absolutely sure they are going to do it!
