St Lucia's Carnival is the most extravagant event on the island. Every year people throng and block the streets of Castries in colourful costumes to parade to the latest soca and calypso hits. Don't miss the all-important calypso competition.
The island's premier performers pit their lyrical and musical abilities in an attempt to win the coveted Calypso Monarch title. The season begins months in advance, with competitors performing nightly for audiences eager to hear the latest offerings.
There is also a beauty queen competition, a steel band competition and a King and Queen of the Band competition.
All of the action explodes into a kaleidoscope of colour and sound on Carnival Tuesday when the costumed bands take to the streets for a day of complete and unadulterated fun.
