The first official carnival was held in Ryde in 1888, but this followed on from a parade the previous year to celebrate Queen Victoria's Jubilee, an event which the Queen attended. It is said that Ryde has the longest tradition of Town Carnivals in the UK. It's a good event, with some fantastic costumes and floats.
