Huddersfield Carnival is brought to you by Huddersfield African Caribbean Cultural Trust (HACCT) who's overall aim of the Trust is to advance, promote, encourage and develop appreciation of and participation in African – Caribbean Culture including Carnival and street arts, their traditions, music and crafts.

To achieve this, there had to be a modification of the structure of HACCT and it was thought best that the carnival had its own committee to lead Huddersfield Carnival. The Carnival Management Committee (CMC) was formed, adding new voices, fresh concepts and establishing a foundation of passionate individuals of the Huddersfield community.
Our goal is to celebrate, cultivate and advocate for the African and Caribbean culture in Huddersfield. We strive to commemorate our richness in diversity and cultural history, whilst also aiming to advance our future as a community, strategizing ways to promote togetherness.

We recognise the that the significant of Carnival is rooted in the congruence of our community, consequently we aim to bring people together in many ways other than the annual Carnival. We will host a variety of events celebrating Afro-Caribbean history, traditions, arts, talents and much more. In doing so, we hope to promote community involvement and secure a positive, enjoyable and momentous Carnival for years to come.
