The activity over at Fireman’s Field is beginning to heat up in anticipation of the 2024 Fireman’s Carnival, scheduled for Wednesday July 10 through Saturday July 13.
Without a doubt, the Fireman’s Carnival and parade are among the most anticipated events of the Webster summer season. Now 87 years old, the carnival has been making memories every year for several generations of kids and adults.
This year’s carnival will be no different, with the return of the always popular beer tent, game booths, rides and live entertainment, great food, raffles and much more. You can check out all the details about what will be happening — and when — at the NEJFD website and Carnival Facebook page but here are some of the highlights:

And of course, games, rides and food every night.
