Atlanta Caribbean Carnival

events surrounding Atlanta Carnival became a mainstay on the calendars of West Indians from all over the world. In 2003, several leaders of local masquerade bands came together to form the Atlanta Caribbean Carnival Bandleaders Association (ACCBA). The group was formed to represent the interests of the masquerade bands in the planning of the Atlanta Caribbean Carnival. The goal of the group was to serve as an advocate to represent the needs of the bandleaders and to offer mentoring and aid to those taking part in the art form of producing carnival costumes. The group has brought thousands of patrons to venues throughout Metro Atlanta. ACCBA is dedicated to producing events that helps increase awareness of the various Caribbean art forms and to working within the community to promote diversity and art education. This year's festivities promise to be even more exciting than ever. The Parade of Bands and the performances at the Festival Village are guaranteed to take the Atlanta Carnival to the next level. Thank you in advance for your help and support in making Atlanta Caribbean Carnival a huge success.
