Festivals Carnival Parade 2023

Some highlights


For a second year, LACAE worked in partnership with the Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival to bring you the world of Latin-American costumes in the colourful and musical Festivals Parade, as part of the summer’s Carnival. Guests from far afield joined Edinburgh’s Latin-Americans, costumed this time on a Fantasy Flora and Fauna theme, in Princes Street Gardens on Sunday, July 16th, alongside other community groups such as the Brazilian samba drummers.

Afterwards, participant from Venezuela, Bolivia, Ecuador, Peru, Mexico, Colombia, the Dominican Republic and Trinidad & Tobago performed during the continuing Carnival in the Gardens.
