    Celebrating Culture and Community: And Then Came Carnival North

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    Carnival North Brings Caribbean Vibes to Simcoe County

    For my West Indian family in Simcoe County, Carnival North is your chance to reconnect with our vibrant culture, right here in Collingwood. On August 17th, from 2 – 11pm, join us at The Collingwood Brewery to celebrate our heritage with music, food, and community. It’s a day to dance to the rhythms of soca, calypso, dancehall/reggae, be mesmerized to the sound of the steelpan, savour the tastes of home, and feel a sense of belonging.

    For those curious about Caribbean culture, this event offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the joy, energy, and unity that make our traditions so special. Whether you’re West Indian or simply love the Caribbean vibes, Carnival North is where you’ll experience it all.

    Come join the celebration and make this year’s Carnival North unforgettable! Because, why? We ready!! 🌟
