Kids Carnival Club
Dance, design and rep your flag.
Half an hour of carnival dance and history with Zaiah Arts, then half an hour turning a plain tee into a wearable masterpiece with feathers, gems and glitter. They'll walk out ready for Children's Day.
Long before the big costumes and the truck sound systems, carnival started with people making something of their own — a bit of paint, a few sequins, a flag's colours stitched into whatever you had on. Mas has always been about personalisation. Nobody's costume looks like anyone else's, and that's the whole point. This session is a chance for kids to learn that carnival is something you make, not just something you watch — and to walk into Children's Day wearing a piece of themselves.
Rep your flag: bring your country's colours, your family's flag, whatever heritage you're proud of — we've got feathers, gems and glitter in every shade to help you wear it loud.
FAQ:
Do I need to bring my own t-shirt? Bring a plain tee from home if you've got one you want to use, or grab one on the day, either way works.
What age is this for? Great for primary-school-aged children. Younger siblings are welcome to join in with a grown-up nearby.
Do parents need to stay? Yes — it's a hands-on hour with feathers, glue and gems flying, so we ask a parent or carer to stay in the room.
Is there step-free access? SPID Theatre has accessible ground-floor entry with a lift.
Panorama and last-minute collections both run through Ladbroke Grove this weekend, this is the one stop before it all kicks off.
