Caribbean Days Festival brings calypso to North Shore (PHOTOS)

Vancouver’s North Shore was seized by calypso rhythms and tropical cuisine this weekend, thanks to the Caribbean Days Festival.

Organized by the Trinidad & Tobago Cultural Society of BC, the massive outdoor party included a street parade, international food fair and sound stage to get everyone grooving.

Here are some of the best pics of the day:

We’re pretty stoked to be at Caribbean Days Festival this weekend at Waterfront Park in North Van! There will be live music, lots of good food to keep your mouth salivating, and of course, we’ll be there to sign you or your friends up with a sick offer! #caribbeandays
