Carnival Magnifico 2019
part one in a two-day event
Carnival Magnifico kicked off in the summer of 2016 and has been bringing the magic of carnival to the streets of Birmingham every summer since. This year’s event is also the first day in A Weird & Wonderful Weekender, two days of events curated by Weird Science, the Birmingham promoters who continue to deliver some of the UK’s best music and arts events, including MADE Festival, providing a showcase for much of the Midlands’ creative talent. Saturday in the Digbeth Arena will be jampacked again as an array of renowned DJs (DJ EZ & Gorgon City announced so far) and arena hosts such as HOSPITALITY and LENGO turn up across the day for A Weird & Wonderful Day Out.
Once partygoers have got their glitter and sparkling carnival outfits on, they will head to Carnival Magnifico to enjoy Shy FX, with the original jungle legend on a high after his recent massive collab ‘Roll The Dice’ ft Stamina MC and Lily Allen. Sheffield’s finest, Toddla T will bring his dancehall influenced vibes to get the carnival crowds jumping, while the inimitable General Levy will test the soundsystem to its limits as he celebrates 25 years of his seminal hit ‘Incredible’. Not be outdone, UK Apache will take to the stage to celebrate 25 years of ‘Original Nuttah’ which was the breakout club anthem for himself and headliner, Shy FX.
For a dose of hip-hop guests will head over to The Hip-Hop Warehouse where they can catch a rare hip-hop party mash-up set from the master of turntablism himself, Jaguar Skills, alongside Patrick Nazemi and his bass-heavy grooves, and SEXY KITCHEN PARTY, mixing up old and new like a chef creates a stew.
If Disco is the aim, then the coolest boogie boys on the block, PBR Streetgang, will deliver as they headline The Disco Box, ably supported by rising star, O’FLYNN. Birmingham’s own DISKO HAUS night carries on the party vibes as they take over The Sunset Terrace.

Everyone loves the carnival and the indoor / outdoor metropolitan festival set up of Digbeth Arena allows for something special. Everyone can get involved with face painting, glitter bar, bubble machines, bouncy stilts, confetti showers; colourful and creative, this is a carnival in every sense of the word. With incredible live performers including a samba band cranking up the atmosphere, death-defying fire breathers, electrifying LED performances and the classic Rio Carnival dancers transporting the crowds to Latin-flavoured heaven, Carnival Magnifico is a true marvel for the senses.
