Planning a Carnival

Is your dream to host a carnival? Carnivals are a fun way to community-build and raise money for good causes. Whether it’s for a school or church, you’ll need to make sure you plan ahead and have all the pieces to the puzzle. Fun Planners has the equipment and tips you need!

Research
The best way to learn about any event is to do your research. Visit a carnival before planning your own. Attending events executed by others will help you realize what you need for yours!

Budget
One of the most important parts of planning an event is determining a budget. You can’t even begin to think about anything else without a budget in mind. Appoint a treasurer to be responsible for all of the money that is going in and out of your event.

Team
A carnival is not a one-man job. You’ll need to recruit coordinators and volunteers way ahead of time. Set timelines and assign tasks. Organize areas of the event into sections, then assign a leader to coordinate that area.

Goals
You can’t jump right into hosting a carnival without mapping everything out first! Be sure to make clear and concise objectives. If you have goals set from the very start, you’re more likely to reach your goal. 

Organization
The most crucial part of planning an event is to be organized. Your goal is to have a successful event that will continue annually. Cut down on costs and time by going digital, including for ticket purchases.

Equipment
Set a theme for your event and start booking a company to provide your equipment! Carnival booths, games, and rides are all available at Fun Planners. From Mardi Gras to Medieval, the options for themes are endless!
