Toronto Caribbean Carnival 101

July 28, 2017
Toronto Caribbean Carnival

I’ve seen Toronto Caribbean Carnival through many lenses. I’ve played mas all my life, I’ve made costumes with my dad, I’ve covered the parade many times as a reporter. It’s one of my favourite topics. As a Caribbean lifestyle blogger, I’d be remiss if I didn’t dedicate a few posts to Toronto carnival or Caribana as it is more commonly known.  A did a short video where I answer a few questions you’ve been asking. These are things that work for ME. There are many more things to discuss.

I’m very much looking forward to the parade. By the way, the cover picture for this post is of my friend Stacey and I trying on this year’s costumes. The picture below is from 2015 with friends Sassy and Lissa. Oh, also I want to reiterate the importance of drinking water on the route. I didn’t stress it enough in the video. Especially if you’re going to be drinking alcohol. I personally don’t drink on the route. Again you can learn more about the new route HERE.

If you have more questions, let me know in the comments and I’ll answer them on my Facebook Live on Sunday at 10:15a. Thanks as always for watching!
