About the Event

This year Derby West Indian Community Association (DWICA) celebrates its 41st year of hosting Derby Caribbean Carnival.

This is a true Flagship community cohesion event that showcases a carnival troupe street procession consisting of over 400 carnival troupes from various cities in the UK such as Nottingham, Leicester, London, Leeds, Preston and, of course, Derby.

The procession leaves Pear Tree School on a 3km route to the Market Place in Derby city centre, for the carnival troupe costume exhibition, competition and live performance by local Derby acts.
