BERLIN CARNIVAL WEEKENDER SAYS FAREWELL A

ter 15 years of organising a band on the road and a growing series of fêtes around Karneval der Kulturen in Berlin, Carnival Fever, the organisers of the ‘Berlin Carnival Weekender’ have announced in a press release their decision to draw the curtains closed.

After creating beautiful memories for many, including the Soca on the Beach fête and live concerts with many of the biggest names in soca, the carnival weekender will have its last lap this year, before closing doors to revellers. However, Carnival Fever will not be putting a band on the road this year.

The final installation of Carnival Fever Entertainment’s offering includes an impressive line-up of events, including Carnival Cruise and Soca on the Beach. Tickets are already on sale, and may be purchased via carnivalfever.ticket. io. Berlin Carnival Weekender is scheduled to take place from Friday 26 to Sunday 28 May 2023.

Of course, the carnival of the cultures, Karneval der Kulturen, continues in Berlin, this year on Sunday 28 May, with bands representing nations and cultures from around the world. And although Carnival Fever will not be on the road, Carnival Explosion will still be taking part, with a presentation entitled 'Road Again'. Due to the late confirmation of the carnival from authorities, the band are not creating their own costumes but allowing masqueraders to bring their own; no T-shirts allowed, though.
