The Diss Carnival is the annual party of the year, held in June! Sadly we have been unable to hold the carnival in 2020 or 2021 due to Covid but plan to be back, bigger and better, in 2022! See the website for details. Follow the parade from Diss High School through the town centre and into the Park where the fun continues. Fancy getting involved?

They will also continue to facilitate and support the majority of events that take place in the town.
