The warmth of the Caribbean sweeps into Dallas with the beauty of masquerade bands, colorful glittering costumes robust with feathers and the sounds of steel pans
, courtesy of Dallas Carnival Caribbean Fest. The four-day, multi-venue festival, known as Dallas Carnival, returns Sept. 15–18.
The festivities are rich with history and traditions. They kick off with a “Black Ops” camo party at Heroes Lounge and end with “Parade of the Bands” at Joe Pool Lake. The event is a multicultural celebration of freedom, diversity and inclusion. “J’ouvert is actually deeply rooted in their religious aspects," Ayuso says."When they [slaves and indentured servants] broke away and were free, they were able to celebrate, sometimes even in mud.” .
The following day, an all-white dance party will take place at Addison’s Cafe 214. Guests are asked to dress to the nines. Sounds will be provided by local DJ Supa Slim and international DJs Riggo Suave, Milo Myles and Shawn Venom.
