One of the most famous Carnivals in the world

When discussing Jacmel, it is impossible to avoid mentioning Haiti's most well-known carnival. This celebration, which is utterly out of the ordinary for the residents of Jacmel, brings Haitians from all over the nation and even those who have fled the country to the city each year, increasing Jacmel's reputation. Visitors that arrive during the carnival will be greeted with applause, smiles, and colorful displays. The vibrancy of the Haitian Carnival rivals that of Brazil.

Only on the second Sunday in February do residents dress in vibrant costumes and perform folk dances in the streets to the tune of upbeat music to represent the carnival. The melody will stay in your mind while you are there till the national carnival arrives a week later. The national carnival is typically held in Port-au-Prince, but it can also be observed in other cities. It is best to read some news items from Haiti regarding carnivals in advance.
