Mablethorpe Carnival 2019

The 2019 Mablethorpe Carnival took place on the 21st of September on a beautiful sunny day. Queens Park, Mablethorpe Prom and the Town Centre were all crowded with people who had turned out for the event as well as The Bathing Beauties Festival which took place over the same weekend. In fact it was so busy it was difficult at times to take unobstructed photos so apologies to anyone not included in our collection below.

The event was a massive success and it’s hard to believe this is only it’s second running after a 15 year break. Congratulations to the Mablethorpe Carnival Committee.
