CaribFest is a celebration where the Caribbean Diaspora can preserve and share their heritage. It has wonderful traditions, some of which are 100 years old. CaribFest fosters an atmosphere of cultural diversity. There are two components of CaribFest:
The Street Exhibition (Parade)- A kaleidoscopic of color (fancy masquerade bands, floats, steelpan, etc.)
Park/Stadium Events- Live performers (Calypso, Soca, Reggae, Latin, etc.) and all sorts of traditional Caribbean cuisine, drinks and colorful handmade arts & crafts and fashions

Where's the current dates? - Unlike other websites, CaribbeanChoice only publishes the official dates as released by the carnival organizer. Most other websites simply guess what next year's dates are. We don't do that. We want to make sure our information is as accurate as possible.
This page will be updated as soon as we get the official dates from the event organizer, or they post it on their official website, whichever comes first.
Note: We haven't heard anything from this carnival in awhile. It may not be held anymore. If you have information about this carnival, please contact us.
