A colourful collection for North America\u0027s largest street festival
This year, the parade is taking place on July 30, 2022, at Exhibition Place in Toronto, Ont.
Caribana has been running in Toronto since 1967. It started as a gift from Canada’s Caribbean community in honour of Canada’s Centennial. For its 100th, the Canadian government invited ethnocultural groups to participate in the celebrations. The timing aligned with the country’s immigration reform, so there was an influx of Caribbean emigration.
Caribana was established by the immigrants from the Caribbean to connect with the history of slavery and the struggle for emancipation. Toronto’s Caribana is similar in format to Trinidad and Tobago’s festivities but represents communities and traditions from many islands including Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica and Barbados.Article content
