Carriacou Carnival

The carnival in Carriacou is held every year on the 28th and 1st of February. This event combines different ethnic rituals, island music, food with a variety of flavors, and the excitement of inhabitants and visitors to the island to enjoy the moment. Despite its island status, it attracts people who are drawn to the deep blue of its beaches and the flora and fauna that can be found on its land. The island of Carriacou, also known as Cariobac, is the epicenter of this festival, which takes place every February and is infused with greater enthusiasm and emotion each time. According to a 2001 census, this island, which is located in the Caribbean Sea but is handled by Grenada, has a population of 6,063 people.

Carriacou Carnival contains a calypso competition that blends rhythm with clever and cutting social satire, as well as wild and beautifully expressive street dances, a soca frenzy, a band parade, and a soca frenzy. During Carriacou's Carnival, onlookers were treated to the distinctive highlight and feature of the Shakespeare Mas. There is no other place on Earth where you can hear passages from several of William Shakespeare's plays read aloud. Shakespeare Mas is a unique aspect of Carriacou's Carnival that must be experienced firsthand. Men in bright colors spar verbally, attempting not to mess up their lines or succumb to a stick stroke from their opponent.
