Shhh! Do you hear that?
Shhh! Can you hear that?
Can you feel the vibrancy in the air?
Listen again!
Can you hear it? Can you feel it?
That sound and feeling is Antigua’s Carnival! The Caribbean’s Greatest Summer Festival is finally here. Eleven exciting days of cultural explosion, music, revelry and performing arts under the theme of Sweet Misbehavin’.
The Sweet Misbehavin’ has been ongoing for weeks with the sounds of sweet soca music pulsating the airwaves. Mas camps have been buzzing as designers bring to life their extravagant costume designs. Facebook and twitter timelines are filled with updates of soca lyrics, mas troupes announcing j’ouvert and costume specials, soca artists releasing new music and instagram is overflowing with throwback pictures from past carnivals (use hashtag #antiguacarnival).
Shhh…listen! They are doing the final sound check for the Soca Monarch Competition.
Look…mas players collecting their costume packages.
