Roll up, roll up, for the stupendous, amazing, wonderful Cargo Carnival!

Our flagship festival is back for the first time since 2019. Join our happy parade of cyclists as you show the city of Cambridge what can be carried on a bike.

We’re delighted to be hosting this event this year in collaboration with the Cambridge University Library, where you’ll have the opportunity to try out cargo bikes from Outspoken Cycles, Electric Bike Sales, the School Run Centre, Townsends and Cyclecentric.

Refreshments are available from Steak and Honour, VG coffee, Mac Daddy and Ice Cream Dreams. Other stallholders at the University Library include Oxwash, Pedal and Brass, David Parr House, the Museum of Cambridge, Visit Cambridge and Cambridgeshire Libraries.

Cargo bike businesses joining the parade include Gutter and Stars, Grape Britannia and Mike’s Bread.

The event begins at 11am with a short ride through Cambridge and back to the library, where we’ll pull up for the fair.

Start: 11am

Parade: 11.30-12.30pm

Fair: 12.15-2.30pm
