🎉 Get Ready for the Guernsey Round Table Harbour Carnival 2026! 🎆
Harbour Carnival
Mark your calendars! The Guernsey Round Table is delighted to announce that the next Guernsey Round Table Harbour Carnival is being held on Saturday 4th July! 🌟
The Harbour Carnival is known as one of Guernsey's headline summer events, attracting thousands of people every year. We will once again be entertaining the community at St Peter Port Harbour with live music, entertainment, and fantastic carnival touches
We are thrilled to confirm the return of the spectacular Man Powered Flight, a firm carnival favourite where competitors jump from a raised platform to see who manages to ‘fly’ the furthest! Alongside this favourite, we will see the return of other classics, including the duck race, dinghy race, and tug of war, plus some new ideas we will be announcing soon. As always, the evening will culminate in a spectacular Grand Finale display over the harbour.
Beneficiary Announcement Coming Soon
The funds raised at this event are split between a main Bailiwick Beneficiary and Guernsey Round Table Charitable giving. This year's funds will support community initiatives. We are finalising the details and look forward to announcing our chosen beneficiary shortly!

Event Sponsors
The Harbour Carnival is a big undertaking with many firms and contractors giving their time for free, however there are inevitably costs which can't be avoided and as we raise money each year split between a main Bailiwick Beneficiary and Guernsey Round Table Chartable giving we rely on main event sponsors to ensure we can give as much money as possible to these worthy causes.
We are truly grateful for the help and support of these sponsors, without whom this free community event could not happen, so please show your support and appreciation for all our sponsors detailed below.

Why Sponsor the Innovative Finale?
- For businesses, sponsoring the traditional fireworks "may not fit into the modern ethos of company brands". However, funding a state-of-the-art drone show offers unparalleled positive brand alignment:
- Lead the Innovation: Secure the naming rights and associate your brand with a sensitive, community-focused, and cutting-edge spectacle.
- Premier Exposure: The original Sponsorship Opportunity for the finale was £1,500 and includes media mentions, plus access to the Man Powered Flight platform for a prime elevated view.
- Community Impact: Ensure the carnival, which relies on main event sponsors, closes with a bang (or a silent, beautiful light display) to raise money for worthy Bailiwick causes.
🚨 This opportunity is offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Do not miss the chance to put your company at the heart of the most anticipated moment of the 2025 Harbour Carnival!.
