Post Nuneaton Carnival Cancelled
Apparently due to a lack of interest - a shame: https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/in-your-area/devastating-blow-nuneaton-carnival-2022-23736955

That is a real shame. When I was a child I used to love going to carnivals. At one in '63 I saw a Hawker Hunter cockpit, which set off a chain of events that gave me a career.

Down to a lack of volunteers, according to another report. There's always an outcry when things like this happen, but those same people never want to volunteer to run the events.
