I Survived Caribana
The Toronto Caribbean Carnival,
commonly called Caribana is a festival of Caribbean culture and traditions held each summer in the city of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
I have a few photos from this Party and I would like to share with you.

The festival was introduced to Canada by immigrants from the Caribbean. It follows a Carnival format, particularly following the Trinidad and Tabago Carnival but also influenced by the street dancing and masquerading in costume found on every Caribbean island such as John Canoe in Jamaica, Crop Over in Barbados, and other similar festivals in Cuba, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic. The Carnival participants say that this event is very important for preserving and expressing their Caribbean identity

Caribana is a great parade through the city of Caribbean style :)
A few days Party on the streets and in the parks, a few days of many happy people.
Thousands of people. Dancing, colorful and loud and happy.

However, the best thing is the positive energy of these people :)
While the Caribbean Festival holds events over several weeks, the culmination of the Caribana event is the final weekend which is punctuated by the street Parade of Bands. The street Parade of Bands consists of costumed dancers (called "Mas players") along with live Caribbean music being played from large speakers on the flat-bed of 18 wheeler trucks. Much of the music associated with the event, such as steel pan, soca and calypso, but you can also find floats which play chutney, dancehall and reggae.
