Over 2 million in attendance this year!
Reports coming out of 8 stabbings, 75 police officers injured, including officers being urinated on, bitten and sexually assaulted. Footage of a lad running amok with a machete.
Doorbell footage released of multiple revellers using someone's front garden as a toilet.
What are everyone's thoughts on the future of the carnival? Should it be banned / moved to another location / left alone? What are your experiences of the carnival? Would you recommend the carnival to family and friends?
I've only been once years ago, it was OK for the most part but I got caught in a massive crush, scared the life out of me feeling like I couldn't breathe and not being able to move in a sea of people. No idea what caused it, or whether it was just too many people in a bottleneck. Put me right off going again.
