Every year, the Toronto Caribana carnival fills the city of Toronto with reverberating music of Calypso, reggae, rap, and more. The delicious aroma spreads through Toronto's streets, inviting everyone to taste the Caribbean flavors. And the much-awaited crowning of the King and Queen that drives everyone to celebrate is the grandest spectacle.
From July until August, the whole month will lead to 3 days of celebration of the Grand Parade, filled with carnival outfits and mas bands that march through the streets of Toronto. Elsewhere in the city, Caribbean restaurants compete for the best dishes while the patios fill us with reggae and Calypso bands. Everything happens in honor of Canada's Emancipation Day.
