This year, we’re bringing the spectacle of decorated floats back to Falmouth Carnival! Whether you’re a local business, a community group, a school, or just a group of friends with a creative spark, now’s your chance to design and showcase your own eye-catching float.
A float is typically a decorated vehicle or trailer (up to 7.5 tonnes) designed to reflect a theme, celebrate a cause, or simply bring some fun to the parade! Think vibrant displays, imaginative costumes, and plenty of energy—the more creative, the better!
There are important vehicle specifications and conditions to meet in order to enter a float in the Falmouth Carnival. You can find out more and register your float HERE!

The heart of Falmouth Carnival has always been its fantastic marching parade, and we want YOU to be part of it!
Get creative with your costumes, banners, and routines as you bring the theme ‘Fill Your Boots’ to life. Whether you interpret this literally with oversized boots or take it as a call to celebrate local pride, we can’t wait to see what you come up with!
This is by far the easiest way to get involved – all you will need to do is register HERE.
