This year, St. Maarten Carnival was celebrated for the 16th time. It generally last for 18 days, which are full of joy and graciousness showers happening on next.

This time it started from 16th day of April month and exactly from this inauguration ceremony the mood was set to rock. With the help of queen shows and teen shows the tempo of the festival picked up the rhythm. Actually, just as a starter, there were a lot of skin display and from every age group the best ones were crowned as a queen.

The 22nd and 23rd day of the festival was marked by the motivation for the youth. The young people taking part in the festival just danced and partied and took the whole stage in their capture. On the 24th day of the festival, the girls started their attack with howling loudly.

Then on the 28th day of April, there was a break for a while in the festive mood with some cooling. But after refreshed enough in the break time, the festive spirits bounced back with double energy, and all colorful bodies could be seen floating around in the J’ouvert show, with this the viewers also went crazy and participated to bash.

The 30th day and 1st day of May, was kept for the Grand march or pared, which is also called as Labors day march. The music during these pared, was very loud and the music and dance just flowed on places all over. The last day was the day for lovers’ celebrations.
