CARNAVAL DE SAINT-BARTHÉLEMY
Carnival
Read moreCarnival remains the biggest popular festival of the year. The king of the festival is called Vaval, a character who incarnates evil and who is burned at the end of the event. Several days of festivities with the participation of school children. Then comes the Vidé de Mardi-Gras, which is the day when a huge parade is organised in the island's capital, Gustavia. A great procession of colours and costumed groups: a musical and frenzied parade along the quays.
