Carnival is a truncation of the latin word
carnelevarium and refers to the period
before Lent in the church calendar when it was the custom to consume all the perishable stocks of food that were not allowed during the period of general fasting. A hangover from our medieval past.
How oddly typical it is that Accrington should decide to hold its Carnival in June.
