The Citizens Day Carnival, in keeping with this year's nautical theme, will be held on and adjacent to the beach in Dockside. Abandoned cargo yards are being converted into an open-air fairground, featuring rides and games for children and adults alike. The beach will have tents for food and drinks, as well as activities.

Carnival hours (Rhydin Time): Friday 9/11 - 8am to midnight Saturday 9/12 - 8am to 8pm Sunday 9/13 - 10am to 8pm

((There will be a live event for opening day of the Carnival, possibly two—one during the day, and one in the evening.))
