Traditional Carnival Characters Parade 2015

The National Carnival Commission of Trinidad and Tobago (NCC) invites the media to attend and cover the Traditional Carnival Characters Parade 2015, starting from Woodford Square, Port of Spain to the Queen’s Park Savannah on Friday, February, 6 at 10 am.

The Parade will feature a diverse celebration of traditional characters, which includes a vibrant display of Moko Jumbies, Pierrot Grenades, Dame Lorraines, Baby Dolls, Bats, Jab Molassie, Burrokeets, Fancy Indians, and Traditional Sailors.

The Parade is a mainstay of the NCC Regional Carnival calendar of events. Regional Carnival carries the baton of the traditional aspects of the festival by ensuring that there exists continuity, sustainability, historical tradition, and the maintenance of cultural identity and tapestry.

Regional Carnival features many dimensions and competitive aspects, such as stick fighting competition, the Carnival village, traditional character festival, reenactment of the Camboulay riots, and the Dragon Festival.
