Carnival costume making workshops

As part of Butetown Carnival 2021 - which we're thrilled to be supporting - community artists are running workshops to create costumes, headdresses and accessories for this year's parade.

Sessions are being held over August, at Butetown Pavilion on Dumballs Road from Tuesday – Friday and in Pedal Power at Cardiff Caravan Park on Saturdays.

The workshops are open to anyone aged 6+ but all children will need to be accompanied by an adult. Sessions can get messy so please wear old clothes!

You'll need to give your name and number, and specify which session(s) you’d like to attend, for the venues’ Covid track and trace measures.
