Tolerance – Joy – Community
The first spring carnival was held in 1974 and has since been an annual tradition that has evolved into a multicultural family celebration. The carnival was started by young people and adults at Hammarkullen’s community centre. Almost all associations in Hammarkullen and many in London and surrounding areas are involved in one way or another, and the carnival is a real community festival.
