The Bellingen Global Carnival is an annual multicultural and multi-arts festival celebrating Australian cultural diversity.

The Carnival concentrates on an experience that enables the audience to have an intimate encounter with the performers and their art form. Throughout the weekend the festival presents workshops for the public as well as outdoor physical theatre.
