Thunder Clouds

C a r i f e t e is masquerade on the street representing a kaleidoscope of colors, cultures and artistry and a celebration for people of every age, race and creed.  The festive ambiance of this event is created through a colorful parade of costumed participants accompanied by mobile music (live, D.J's, or Steeldrums).  Themes represent fictitious characters brought to life, which represents the domains of history, nature or fantasy.  The entire parade exemplifies a cultural extravaganza including the musical genre of Calypso, Soca, Reggae, Punta and Zouk; dances to match the music & cuisine from the Islands of the Caribbean and the Americas.
