Toronto Caribbean Carnival 2026

The Toronto Caribbean Carnival (TCC) or Toronto Carnival, is a vibrant and dynamic celebration of Caribbean culture, heritage, and artistry. Now in its 59th year, the Carnival is one of the largest cultural festivals in North America, attracting millions of participants and spectators from around the world and contributing over half a billion dollars to the Toronto economy.

The Toronto Caribbean Carnival Grand Parade fills the city with colour, creativity, and Caribbean rhythm. Thousands of masqueraders dance to the sounds of soca and calypso, while spectacular costumes dazzle spectators along the lakeshore. It’s the largest celebration of its kind in North America — a tradition of freedom, pride, and unity.
