Canalway Cavalcade IWA CANALWAY CAVALCADE 2022 FREE ADMISSION BOATS / FOOD / DRINK / MUSIC / ENTERTAINMENT / CRAFTS / FAMILY FUN After a two year absence we’re so excited to be welcoming you back to Canalway Cavalcade in Little Venice. This iconic venue has been hosting the event since 1983 and will be transformed once again by over a hundred colourfully dressed boats, live music, refreshments, craft stalls and plenty of family fun for all to enjoy. This vibrant festival is one of the biggest and brightest events in the nation’s waterways calendar and a firm favourite with visitors. Organised by volunteers from The Inland Waterways Association (IWA), the event takes place over May Day Bank Holiday weekend – 30th April to 2nd May - at Little Venice in Paddington. There is a packed programme of events both on and off the water including a pageant of decorated boats on Saturday; boat handling competitions; an evening procession of illuminated boats on Sunday and a parade of historic and working boats on Bank Holiday Monday. Younger visitors can try their hand at kayaking, visit a Teddy Bear’s Picnic or watch a traditional Punch & Judy show in Rembrandt Gardens. Opening Times: Saturday 30th April Sunday 1st May Monday 2nd May
10 – 6pm 10 – 6pm and 9pm – 10.30pm 10 – 5pm
