Held at the end of July and the beginning of August, Looe Carnival signals the start of the summer and fun times ahead for all ages. Looe Carnival is organised by the Lions Club of Looe, with events throughout the week ranging from choir performances and sandcastle competitions to fancy dress treasure hunts. The highlight of the week is, as always, the Grand Carnival Procession, which provides some great entertainment for a Saturday evening.
