It’s rooted in the decades of old conventional Monday August Bazaars, fairs, and the older time Christmas celebrations, which features a number of African prejudiced enriching expressions of isle life. These actions were prearranged by the churches and May pole dancers, wirewalkers, and Mock-a-Jumbies among other things.
Salt Pickers festivities still radiate the same spirit and charm of those early periods of festivities. Festival as we know is an expression of a typical modern Caribbean Carnivals.
