The flavours, sights, and sounds of Saint Lucia came alive in Miami as the International Launch of Lucian Carnival 2026 wowed an audience of travel partners, media, and the Saint Lucian diaspora on October 8.

With dynamic presentations by the Saint Lucia Tourism Authority and electrifying performances by UMPA, Blackboy, and Mighty backed by Saint Lucian Deejay Sir Lancealot and dancers, the showcase embodied the genre’s raw, unapologetic energy and deep cultural roots capturing the creativity, vibrancy, and spirit of Saint Lucian youth culture.
