Overview

Celebrate the best of life on London’s waterways and its vibrant community. Come alone or with friends — our group is super friendly and welcoming.

Have you ever wanted to visit the IWA Canalway Cavalcade but had no one to go with? If so, join us this May Bank Holiday weekend when the festival returns to the beautiful canals of Little Venice.

The Canalway Cavalcade is a vibrant canal festival celebrating the culture and heritage of London’s waterways. It’s a fantastic day out where colourful narrowboats and canal craft of all shapes and sizes gather along the waterways. There will also be a variety of unique stalls selling crafts and gifts, a real ale bar, and plenty of delicious food options for all appetites.

Each year the festival celebrates the boating community and canal life with live music, family-friendly entertainment and special boating activities, including the legendary illuminated boat procession.

We will meet in Camden. Once you have booked your place, full details of the meeting point will be shared closer to the event.

From Camden we will take a water bus at around 11:15 am and cruise along the beautiful Regent’s Canal to Little Venice.

Once we arrive, we’ll explore the festival, soak up the atmosphere and enjoy something to eat while taking in the lively surroundings.
