Nevis Culturama July 25 to August 6th This island-wide festival takes place every year on Nevis. Considered to be the Caribbean’s greatest summer lime, Culturama celebrates the emancipation of slavery. Calypso, pageants, street fair, colourful parades, food, music and drink are all part of this event which brings Nevisians in the diaspora back home to celebrate with friends and family. From mid-June when the Culturama is launched until August 6th when the street parade and last lap jump-up brings the festival to a close, the island pulsates with a variety of stimulating events.
