The Carnival: 50 Years in St Pauls

Marking the 50th anniversary of Bristol’s cultural gem – the St Pauls Carnival.

Narrated by Bristol’s first poet laureate Miles Chambers, from costumes to sound systems this tale looks at the history of the St Pauls Carnival, meets the family of four generations who all have a stake in it, and follows the new organisation grappling to appease a fractured community in order to put this year’s event on. Failure to do so “will spell the end of carnival forever.”
