Attend one of the U.S. Virgin Islands’ treasured traditions since the 1800s, be part of Frederiksted’s pageantry and holiday carnival from late December to early January. Stroll the Festival Village, cheer children’s and adult parades, taste local flavors and hear live music that ranges from Latin to reggae beats. Marvel at stunning costumes, moko jumbies, and parades of people dancing for hours to calypso and soca music blasted from colorful floats by local bands.
