Ringwood Town Carnival 2025
What to expect at Ringwood Carnival — 20th September 2025
Join us in celebrating the annual Ringwood Carnival on Saturday 20th September — a wonderful day and evening of community fun, right on our doorstep. A highlight in the Ringwood social calendar!
Here’s what you need to know:
- Two colourful processions (at 2:00pm and 7:15pm), featuring community floats, marching bands, majorettes, carnival royalty (arriving in a horse-drawn cart), steam engines and classic / feature cars.
- Adlam’s Fun Fair, with a variety of rides (including dodgems, priced at £3, others at £2), open from 12:00 noon through to late evening.
- An evening fireworks display (around 9:30pm) to cap off the celebrations.
- A bustling Village Green with stalls (food, crafts, community groups) and lots of opportunities to soak up the carnival atmosphere.
- Travel guidance, parking and route maps are provided in advance, so getting to and from the event is straightforward. We offer free parking for 2 hours at The Furlong shopping centre. If you need longer we recommend the long stay car parks.
Whether you’re popping into The Furlong before or after, it’s a perfect opportunity to combine shopping, dining and family entertainment in one fantastic day out.
We look forward to welcoming you and hope the carnival adds a little extra sparkle to your visit.
