Pure Elegance Carnival Pure Elegance Carnival

Pure Elegance is a carnival group which was established by an elder of the Caribbean Community in Huddersfield in 2001. We are a highly reliable and experienced group of individual volunteers who have come together within the community to coordinate a carnival troupe and take part in Caribbean Carnival parades we all feel passionate very about. Pure Elegance is made up of over 40 children and young people and we aim to allow all our members, many of whom may lack social skills, confidence or come from single or lone parent families affected by poverty in Kirklees; to have the opportunity to learn new skills in dance and the arts and encourage each other to make friends and integrate with different ethnicities and cultures whilst building on individual’s skills which can be beneficial for life.

2016 was a huge year for us as we featured in BBC’2’s ‘Our Dancing Town, Look North News and filmed an advert for Thomas Cook Airlines. Attracting a large proportion of both the media and social media’s attention due to our achievements so far, stunning costumes, performances and consistent successes at Caribbean Carnival competitions throughout the UK, Pure Elegance is flourishing, and we hope to continue to expand our successes so far.
