Charleston Carifest

Charleston Carifest is a Caribbean Carnival celebration in honor of Caribbean American Heritage Month. It is three days of food, fun, music, and costumes submerged in education and culture. This is the creative and artistic expression of Caribbean people. Join in and embrace Unity in Diversity. Carifest starts on Thursday with an Opening Reception and an educational symposium, followed by the All White Fete on Friday. Saturday's events feature a Mardi-Gras style Street Parade through the streets of downtown Charleston, leading to the Carnival Village at Brittle Bank Park.
