Miami Broward One Carnival 2017 pulled out all the stops this year following the devastating hurricanes that invaded the East Coast to host one of the most memorable carnivals ever!  

Ready to enjoy all that Miami has to offer, carnival enthusiasts traveled from far and beyond to dance in the sunshine while donning their best carnival threads.

The costumes were bigger and brighter than ever, the music was ‘wicked’ and the energy was electric.  Between onlookers, massive bands and masqueraders—the streets were flooded with culture from each and every island bringing the vibes of the Caribbean to Downtown Miami.
J’ouvert Experience was the place to be this year! Full of vibes, colors and excitement, everyone represented with their flags and a unified vibe while the bands trucks all jammed with their tunes. Blue Paint Frontliners and dancers whined alongside their respective bands while food and drink runners kept the party going. The consensus was unanimous this year, Miami Broward is on the top of the lists of best carnivals!
