Saint Lucia Carnival is back this year! This year’s Carnival will feature a variety of events including: the ever-popular National Carnival Queen Pageant on July 7th, Soca Monarch on July 8th, Calypso Monarch on July 9th, Panorama (Steel Pan Competition) and King and Queen of the Bands on July 10th, and a line up of fetes and boat rides starting July 10th. Carnival culminates in an exciting, fun-filled two-day street parade of live bands and DJ music, stunning Carnival costumes and the joyous and energetic revelry on July 18th and 19th. This is a very special celebration of Caribbean history, culture and creativity. St Lucia Carnival is recognised as one of the top Carnivals in the Caribbean and becomes a more vibrant and creative event each year.
