Contrary to popular belief, Atlanta has a rich tradition of celebrating Carnival that goes back to the late 80’s. Although ATL’s Carnival may not reach the heated frenzy of bigger U.S. cities like New York, Miami or Boston; it does deserve mention considering Atlanta’s large Caribbean population. 
We decided to reach out to some of the organizations preparing for one of the areas major Carnival Celebrations. The Atlanta-DeKalb Carnival scheduled for Memorial Day Weekend. This Carnival is host two area bands that we asked to share their story, photo’s and upcoming events.
