Carriacou Parang Festival - Dec. 16th to 18th

The 28th Annual Carriacou Parang Festival season climaxes Friday 16 to Sunday 18 December 2005.

Festivities begin on Friday with a free open-air concert in the streets of Hillsborough featuring carol singing, cultural presentations and parang string bands, followed by house to house ""paranging"" all night.

On Saturday night enjoy live performances from entertainers from around the world.

On Sunday organized parang groups from villages throughout Carriacou, Grenada and Petite Martinique compete for the chalenge trophy and cash prizes, performing a compulsory Christmas Carol and their selected piece.

Traditional Carriacou celebration dances such as the Quadrille and Big Drum will also spice up the night.
