Africa's biggest Carnival in Nigeria | 2023 Calabar Carnival

I miss my home fr !!! I’m happy the carnival is coming back but by bit for those who asked why it’s called the biggest street party well because it’s a whole month of different activities not just the carnival parade. It starts off after the AIDS initiative walk then there is the lighting of the Christmas tree football matches Christmas concert, gospel concert,utomo Obong ( yearly Yuletide visit tot he Obong of calabar ) two carnivals one up north in (ogoja) and the biggest one, the childrens carnival, the cultural carnival, international carnival (which was cancelled this year, Miss Africa beauty pageant ( that was also cancelled) the bikers parade and the Main Street party. Then moves on to the carnival after party, Nyoro ekpe and ends on the first of January with Nkod mbok. As at the time carnival started it was called the biggest street party so 💁🏾‍♀️

Steve i’ve lived in calabar for over 10 years and attend this event every year,i must say watching you make a video on the streets of my city,while capturing the essence of this event so well has made me realize how well made your videos and content are..unfortunately for the first time in over 5 years i couldn’t attend this year,i’m sure i would’ve sighted you on the streets keep it up.

lovely carnival beautiful but what a shame all the rubbish on the ground spoils the beauty of the carnival

Its not fair, this event didn't get the popularity it deserves. So nice and colorful. Cross river home of tourism. Calabar to the world. ❤

Great video. More like this plz 💜💙🤎🎉🥳✨👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I have been in Calabar for 5years but never partook in it,I hope to do so this year,thank you Steve

❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

Beautiful Carnival in Beautiful City ❤

Thank You for covering this

This is beautiful ❤

Love thissss

Although the carnival is lovely and a good tourist attraction. My views are that this type of carnival is not Nigerian but imported and copied. That's just my view. However the outfits are beautiful and the people are happy. The carnival brings a lot of revenue to the state..

Looks like a Great One
Sorry I missed it.

Sounds like a good time to do business

We are always ready to adapt western culture and influences into our lives but running away from our own cuture.
Since when did this carnival things started in Africa

So, so Beautiful My people!!
