Organiser Melissa Head from Knockout Events said the success of Port Douglas Carnivale was largely due to the support and involvement of locals who have enthusiastically immersed themselves in the program each year.
“In particular, we’ve hear great things about the fun-loving, blinged-up, all-star singing and dancing locals who make the street parade the highlight that it is and we look forward to seeing what Port presents for the 2016 opening.”
