This free celebration of Afro-Caribbean music, food, costume and sound-system culture, features performances from three international superstars: Vincentian soca singer Kevin Lyttle, Bajan soca Queen Alison Hinds and the UK's Solo Banton, who will bring the dub, soundsystem and reggae vibes to carnival.
The heart of Melbourne will pulse with the power of three heavyweight DIY sound systems: El Gran Mono, Heartical Hi Powa, and Housewife’s Choice Sound System. Their music will transform the Square into a celebration of rhythm, culture and community.
Get ready to dance alongside hundreds of carnival lovers decked out in vibrant costumes – grab yours from MC Costumes and join in the colourful parade.
Whether you’re from Australia or visiting from abroad, everyone is invited to immerse themselves in this rich Afro-Caribbean experience.
All tribes are welcome – no tickets, no fees, just pure musical joy.
Presented by Fed Square in partnership with Stick Mareebo Productions.
