All except Bahamas, patterned their Carnival from Trinidad and Tobago, especially Jamiaca. Then Toronto, Nottinghill, Miami ... all exported from Trinidad and Tobago.

@isomario Год назад

Trinidad definitely gets top spot. The basis of Carnival and the many variations have been a celebration of emancipation or the slaves wanting to have their own celebrations that mimicked the Europeans or made fun of them. Our Jonkunoo happens in Christmas or at Independence time, but has been dying out, its nothing like the Bahamas but more based on fictional characters and masks. Loved this one fam! 💛💚🖤

@earlhenry9770 Год назад

Trinidad and Tobago carnival is definitely the best in the Caribbean and according to the Huffington Post is the best in the world. It is far ahead of the other islands. Trinidad and Tobago the land where calypso, soca, steel pan and limbo were invented

In short all Carnivals that happens before lent ( before ash Wednesday) are the real Carnival. So Trinidad and Tobago, New Orleans, Brazil, Haiti, Dominica etc are hundreds of years old. All other Carnivals outside of the lent religious season are created for tourist marketing, they started in the last fifty years or so.

Trinidad carnival will change your life it will develop your mind free thinkers , boost your confidence, get you fit in shape, it’s a celebration festival with a feeling of emancipation, liberation. freedom ,unity, immense joy and happiness altogether .

@jasminespencer2872 Год назад

As someone else said, Trini carnival is not two days, it's a whole season The two days are the main fetes (parties), the Monday and Tuesday before Ash Wednesday. As soon as Christmas done, soca and calypso starts playing and people start their carnival fetes and limes (hangouts). We have kidies carnival, panorama (steel pan band competition), Jouvert (the beginning of the 2 days), Extempo and Calypso contest/concert and even our own Mardis Gras. Trini carnival has impacted how many other Caribbean countries celebrate and other cultures have impacted ours also. So if y'all would like to come, I don't think you have to feel concious of how you look if your big or small, tall or short But if the big fetes aren't your thing we have many more fully-clothed activities

Agreed. Barbados Crop Over festival is second only to Trinadad in the Carribean in terms of a great carnival vibes, local music events, food, activities and tourist involvement. It is the celebration of the end of the harvesting of the sugar cane crop. Therefore, crop over.

The info about Jamaica has some incorrect info, Jamaica carnival started in the 1950s by students from the Eastern Caribbean. Who were studying at the University of the West Indies, to bring a piece of their culture to UWI/Jamaica. It was titled 'campus carnival', which is still held every year at the University of the West Indies. The first official Jamaica carnival was in 1990, previous years was really hosted by the university. But from the 50s to now it attracts up to 20k people

@sharlinegibbons9271 Год назад

There is a group of people in Louisiana called the gulluh (not sure of the spelling) people who speak a dialect that sounds so similar to other dialects across the Lesser Antilles. I am confident that Mardi Gra is a cultural thing that travelled from the Caribbean to the United States during the slave trade as a lot of Africans were taken to the Caribbean to be "broken" before their forced transportation to the United States. We feel it in our DNA because it's one of the few positive experiences our ancestors had in the west.

@TheDemouchetsREACT Год назад

Are you talking about Louisiana Creoles? The Gullah Geeche is from the Carolinas-Georgia-Florida coast, not Louisiana. Although Mardi Gras is a carnival, it does not share the same history as the Caribbean carnivals. Mardi Gras originated in Europe. We just created our own celebrations and culture here. www.mardigrasneworleans.com/history/

Okay, I 'm gonna make a statement here.Tell me something , every island has a carnival, by extension, North America, Canada, Europe, Japan, and Germany. All have small pockets of Trini carnival, but why isn't it as big and grand us ours here in Trinidad? I'm going to answer that, it's the people, from young it's instill into our cultural heritage, its taught in schools, steelpan, wire bending, moko jumbies, blue devils etc..we eat and breathe it.. It's part of our country's economic revenue. It's a 365-day a year, production and without us the citizens, it can never be ranked the number one carnival in the world. In essence, it can have a million carnivals. Unless you don't have Trinis, it's going to be just another dull and boring street parade 😴

@triniangel8352 Год назад

It’s connection to colonialism is basically white Europeans from France and Italy brought carnival to their colonies in the Caribbean hundreds of years ago. Over time the slaves started partaking in carnival as well. Eventually changing it to fit more of their slave afro-centric roots. Most colorful artistic elements were thanks to these slaves. Also, Mardi Gras and carnival are the same thing. It’s ALL carnival. Notice they all happen in Feb, with come countries who have changed their day to move away from more popular carnival days in Feb/March.

I've known AA, Europeans, Australians, Canadians, even nationals of Arab countries whom I've worked with abroad, visited the islands and experienced the different Carnivals! Some saving money to come experience an Island Carnival.. Everyone wouldn't like reggae, soca or calypso music either! I've travelled to most of those islands and countries that got Carnivals worldwide..Each is unique and got it's upside and downside! I wouldn't paint everything or everyone with a wide brush! What's exorbitant to some, won't be to others! All depending on their reasons for being there! I live both in the Caribbean and the United States and lots of my friends enjoys the Carnival experiences as they've continuously returned..Bringing their friends and relatives in tow! It's much needed tourism revenue for most of these islands as they're not all blessed with natural resources to compete with larger economies on a global scale! Every sphere of life and activity will have a critic.. Carnivals are not immune!
