2026 Water Carnival

• Venue: Swansea Yacht and Sub Aqua Club

Date to be announced.

The Water Carnival returns in 2026 with a full day of excitement, entertainment and community spirit for members, families and visitors alike. The event will feature a wide variety of stalls and displays, including charity cake stalls, family attractions such as a bouncy castle, and informative exhibits from maritime organisations. Visitors will have the chance to step aboard an RNLI lifeboat, explore its onboard systems and meet some of the dedicated volunteer crew who serve our coastline.

Alongside the land-based activities, there will be plenty of water-themed fun with demonstrations, games and boat trips along the River Tawe on a rigid hull inflatable. The Sea Cadets will once again impress with their parade and drill display, while live music in the afternoon will provide a great atmosphere in the club yard. With delicious food available throughout the day, a Boat Jumble offering the chance to buy and sell marine items, and a lively clubhouse, the 2026 Water Carnival promises a memorable day out for all.
