Located right at the top of the showground, Carnival Fest lives up to its name with lots of colourful archways welcoming you as you walk around.

Reserved for Poacher’s 10–13-year-olds from 7pm, the fairground is located behind the Exo Centre (where the roller disco and 10-13 disco take place). Participants need to be wearing both their neckers and either their lanyard or wristband to get in. There was a big queue when Best of Fest visited, so make sure you come prepared!

Our headline act for the opening ceremony was Max and Harvey. The identical twins are one of Britain’s most popular creative duos, with a string of popular singles and over 6.5 million followers on TikTok. They’ve toured all over the world, but Saturday marked their first ever appearance in Lincolnshire as they performed to an excited audience of nearly 10,000 Scouts, Guides, and staff!
