This year’s Barking and Dagenham Carnival was truly unforgettable, with the incredible Brenda Leacock gracing us with a stunning performance in the Traditional Carnival Fancy Mas costume. Her vibrant and intricate costume, paired with her captivating presence, brought the rich traditions of Carnival to life, leaving everyone in awe. Brenda’s performance was a beautiful tribute to the cultural heritage that our carnival celebrates every year.
