The New Carnival Company aims to

1. Provide an all-year-round programme of carnival workshops, training courses, events and seminars that are strategic, responsive and progressive.
2. Stage at least two large scale and ambitious outdoor events annually which will provide a shop window for local and visiting artists’ work and will inspire their audiences.
3. Create opportunities for international touring, collaboration and artist exchanges to raise the quality and diversity of work across the sector.
4. Deliver an outreach programme in rural and hard-to-reach communities to engage new audiences.
5. Offer support to emerging artists and organisations to help them realise their potential through apprenticeship, mentoring and work experience schemes.
6. Support regional and national carnival development by working in partnership with other arts organisations, institutions and creative partners.
7. Embrace latest technologies and innovation to pursue excellence in the field.
