If you have never been to San Francisco's Carnaval make sure you put this one on your bucket list! Its always a honer giving back to the city that made me. I always look forward Covering San Francisco Carnaval From the food culture and dancing theres something new to learn from every year! Here are a few Photo's by Me (Adrian Sky) with a article written by https://parade.com/

Last Memorial Day weekend, Carnaval San Francisco celebrated “El Corazon de San Pancho — The Heart of San Francisco” at its 39th annual two-day festival and grand parade celebration, May 27 & 28 in San Francisco’s Mission District, promoting diversity, inclusion and love – characteristics of San Francisco that organizers believe are the foundation, or “heart,” of the city. Conceived 39 years ago by a group of local musicians, artists and residents eager to bring the spirit of Latin American and Caribbean culture to San Francisco, Carnaval San Francisco has grown to become the largest annual multicultural celebration in California. Carnaval San Francisco is supported by Brava! For Women in the Arts and San Francisco Grants for the Arts.

Throughout the weekend, hundreds of Carnaval San Francisco dancers and musicians will come together to transform the Mission District into an enormous celebration featuring brilliant costumes, delicious food and artistry from Brazil, Mexico, Bolivia, Colombia, Trinidad, Tobago, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Guatemala, Africa, Chile, Haiti and more – mostly created by Mission District residents and Bay Area artists. The event draws a crowd of more than 400,000 attendees each year.
