A few months back, we shared a ‘save the date’ for our County Carnival Camporee, taking place from Friday 30th April to Monday 3rd May 2027 at Linnet Clough Scout Camp.
This will be our first County Camp on this scale since 2014, and the first ever to include all six sections – from Squirrels to Network! It promises to be a truly memorable celebration of Scouting across our County.
There will be limited tickets available when they go on sale in 2026, but for now, find out below how you can get involved.
Please find below a list of exciting opportunities to get involved in making our County Camporee a truly memorable experience for everyone! Join the team that will bring our County Carnival Camporee to life — whether you’re passionate about programme, communications, entertainment, or safety, there’s a role for you.
