Worthing Rotary Carnival 2026 – Parade Entry Open

The Wait is finally over . .

Heroes, villains and a whole lot of sparkle

This August bank holiday, the seafront will come alive again as Worthing Rotary Carnival returns with two days of family fun and Cosplay Allstars were thrilled to be a huge part of the event with the return of Cosplay Carnival at Beach House Grounds.

Not only that, we will also be again appearing in the Carnival Parade setting off from Grand Avenue, Worthing at 12:30pm and finishing at Steyne Gardens, with the cosplayers continuing on to Beach House Grounds for the Cosplay Carnival.

We have cosplayers and characters travel from across the UK, groups, movie cars, props and our speeder bike joining for a weekend that organisers called 2025 as one of their biggest in years and some press calling it the best parade in decades.
In 2024 we provided 65 characters for the parade; in 2025 the Cosplay Carnival expanded even further with 50 characters on the Sunday and over 120 characters in the parade, with crowds numbering into the tens of thousands across the weekend.

How many for 2026?

Registration is Now Open

If you want to join some of the best cosplay and film characters in the country, then sigh up today.
