The Harbour Carnival is a wet one.... of course!

05th July 2026

Guernsey folk have always known how to entertain themselves and have a good time.

So it was great to see that the Guernsey Round Table have revived one of the highlights of a Guernsey summer... the Harbour Carnival held in and around St Peter Port harbour.

The day of the week changed from a Friday to Saturday but the entertainments still included live music, food stalls and activities for the kids.

And of course it wouldn't have been a harbour carnival without the traditional man powered flights, tug of war and the dinghy races! It was a certainty that if you took part, you went home well and truly wet through!

Let's hope the carnival is firmly back in the calendar so us Islanders can let our hair down, party and get wet again next year.

I've added a gallery of photos featuring some of the highlights. Click the link to view them:
