Jamaica Bacchanal 2023

Road March, Parade Route, Events, Dates, Times

Jamaica Bacchanal

Bacchanal in Jamaica is the famous Caribbean island's version of the carnival events that take place across the world throughout the year, most notably the Trinidad and Tobago Carnival that draws huge crowds to the Port of Spain each year. In Jamaica, the capital of Kingston is the focal point of the celebrations, with a number of carnival events leading up to the Road March which is the climax of the celebrations, taking place around Easter time each year and attrating in excess of 100,000 people!
 
Jamaica Bacchanal has been taking place since 1989, making it a relatively recent addition to the Caribbean's thriving carnival scene, but it continues to grow in popularity each year, drawing a cavalcade of music, costumes, food and colour out onto the streets of Kingston for a party that lasts for several weeks, oh and did we mention rum!

TV & Live Streaming

There isn't a great deal of live coverage available for the Bacchanal in Jamaica as yet, although there is likely to be local radio and TV stations at the road march ar the very least. We'll post any live stream links we manage to find right here.
 
The official site do have a very good video section however, so at the very least you should be able to catch up with the main events after the event:
