Cayman Carnival Batabano
Cayman’s Carnival, Batabano, is usually held the week after Easter every year, and the adult parade will be held on the 7th May 2022. It is a major highlight on the Island’s entertainment calendar. It is said the word ‘batabano’ refers to the tracks left in the sand by sea turtles as they crawl onto the beach to nest. Batabano is a multi-day event that includes a Carnival Ball, soca song competition, street parade, street dance, a beach fête and Soca music, dancing and pageantry. It celebrates the Caribbean’s diverse African and religious roots, as well as reflecting the Island’s rich heritage. Thousands of locals and visitors flock to the streets!
