Event Information:
Caribbean Carnival is the term used
for a number of events that take
place in many of the Caribbean
islands annually. The Caribbean's
Carnivals all have several common
themes many originating from
Trinidad and Tobago Carnival, based
on folklore, culture, religion,and
tradition (not on amusement rides,
as the word "carnival" is often used
in American English). Carnival
tradition is based on a number of
disciplines including: "Playing Mas"/Masquerade;
Calypso Music and crowning a Calypso
King or Monarch; Panorama (Steel
Band Competition); Jouvert morning;
and a number of other traditions.
