Description
This annual event features the Junior Carnival Parade, live performances, Junior King & Queen, and Individual characters of the band. The public entrance is located on Eastern Parkway.
The Junior Carnival Parade assembles at Kingston Avenue and St John's Place, then continues on St. John’s Place, making a left on Franklin Avenue, then a right on President Street ending at the Brooklyn Museum where the bands are then presented and judged.
The Children's Carnival is a spectacle of Caribbean culture and artistry presented by children from ages 1 - 17 years. Portrayals in bright, beautiful colors of feathers and fabric, fitted sometimes with wire frames are presented by bands (groups formed consisting of participants from 10 to 100+). The children’s costumes capture the essence of the theme being portrayed by the band. These bands are accompanied by the sweet rhythms and sound of soca music which represents Caribbean culture.
Family-friendly with a BACK-TO-SCHOOL Giveaway and Community Wellness Sponsors.
