HISTORY

Carnival in Haiti is the biggest party witnessed in this country. The residents of Haiti as well as foreign tourists coming to the country engage themselves in singing and dancing to the overwhelming rhythms in blinding lights and colors. According to the natives, this is the time for Mardi-Gras in Haiti. The word carnival is derived from the Latin word 'Carnavale' which means Meat Farewell. Carnival in Haiti concludes on the day of Mardi-Gras, also known as Fat-Tuesday. This day is named after the custom of consuming all kinds of fats at home before the Easter season. The Wednesday that follows Mardi-Gras, is known as Ash Wednesday. Ash Wednesday is the first day of the penitential season of lent in Christian churches. During this penitential season of 40 days, Roman Catholics are barred from eating meat. The 40 days of Lent leads to Good Friday and Easter Sunday. This means, Carnival in Haiti gives the last opportunity for revelry and indulgence in food, drink and music. Carnival in Haiti is marked by spectacular parades that feature floats, pageants, masked balls, elaborate costumes, seductive music and great dancing on the streets. Festivities during Carnival in Haiti bring a great deal of diversity to the culture of the country. It also signifies economic growth.
