What Is Carnavalito?
Carnavalito On The Road is a travelling multicultural festival that brings the spirit of Carnaval del Sol to cities across British Columbia.

This year, the festival expands with two signature events in the Fraser Valley, featuring Latin American artists, cultural showcases, and over 40 local vendors.
More than 50 artists and 40 food and service vendors from Latin America and Canada.
Carnavalito on the Road is set to whisk you away on a unique expedition, where music, dance, and traditions from Latin America converge to create an unforgettable summer experience in Fraser Valley. This is a platform where diversity is not only acknowledged but celebrated.
