Exclusive to Ryde Illuminated Carnival
Asian Global UK are joining Equals IW for our 2025 Beach of Dreams carnival entry.
They will feature on the evening of Saturday 30th August 2025 in Ryde Illuminated Carnival which is the Island’s biggest carnival.
Equals IW Beach of Dreams is this years main project and is part of a national project of UK-wide coastal arts festivals. These explore the unique heritage, cultures and futures of our coastlines in the face of the climate emergency.
Our costumes will reflect the sands and sea. They will show the shoreline, the environment, and the wildlife of beaches around the UK.
We are bringing a 20-strong support dance group from across the UK. Members are travelling from Portsmouth, Yorkshire and the Isle of Wight.
We are also delighted to welcome back the Yorkshire Filipino Group Cultural Dance Troupe. They will perform in their colourful traditional costumes.
They will be joined by ten Asian Global UK Pageant Queens who will all be dressed in their Beach of Dreams Carnival Costumes.

Carnival Project Leaders Aireen Gauntlett and Mark Cox are excited to present these stunning costumes. They will be displayed together for the first time at Ryde Illuminated Carnival 2025.
In total our entry will have around 50 members who are all looking forward to the parade. The team cannot wait to see the route filled with thousands of spectators and the streets being full of energy and welcoming cheers from the crowds.
