"The Toronto Caribbean festival is a four-week-long celebration of all things Caribbean. The festival has been held every August for the last 52 years. With music, cuisine, dance, and partying, this cultural event is the largest in Canada and the largest outdoor festival in North America. Carnival events that showcase diversity, tradition, and history happen across the city in a variety of formats. The best-known event is the Grande Parade. Not to be missed, the public streets become alive with mas bands. Dressed in Caribbean masquerade, mas band dancers pose for pictures while live music keeps the upbeat vibe. This energetic festival provides an opportunity to learn about Caribbean culture, all while having a good time. Because Caribbean Carnival is made up of so many different events, it is wise to check the schedule beforehand to figure out what you’d like to participate in.When: Early July to early August (four weeks)" - MATADOR_NETWORK
