The Redditch Carnival was an annual event that saw the whole town turn out to celebrate its people, businesses and their achievements. Royal Enfield participated each year, with the centre of attention on its floats being the latest motorcycles. The proud Redditch company won awards for its displays too, with a hat-trick of first places in the manufacturer’s class between 1948 and 1950. Featured from the top in chronological order are displays from 1946 Model G, 1950 500 Twin, 1956 Super Meteor & 1960 Crusader Sports.
