The carnival will also have interactive games, activities and food stalls. WWF-Pakistan has been working on environmental education for the past two decades; the travelling nature carnival is an integral part of its school outreach. This year, to increase the scale of the Nature Carnival, WWF-Pakistan collaborated with MCB to promote its school environment programme. Over 60 schools across Lahore are participating by constructing 3D models and giving live presentations at the venue.
These project stalls will be installed on various themes such as; animals and plants of wetlands, on campus plantation, effects of water and air pollution on health, fresh water conservation, energy conservation and reduction of carbon footprint.  Over thirty leading corporate companies have pledged their support for the environment by setting up promotional stalls at the nature carnival.
