"Bahamas Carnival, now Bahamas Junkanoo Carnival is getting ready for its
May 7-9, 2015 weekend of Carnival with over 20 bands registered to
participate. Sept. 27, 2014 the Bahamas Junkanoo Carnival commission
hosted its band unveil in Nassau, Bahamas. Spectators got an opportunity
to embrace the spirit of carnival and enjoy the festivities. The prime
minister of the Bahamas the Rt. Hon. Perry G Christie and the Minister
of Youth, Sports and Culture Hon. Danny Jhonson echoed the promise of
economic growth through tourism dollars.
While many are worried about the impact the Bahamas Junkanoo Carnival
will have on cultural identity, the ultimate objective seems to be an
increase in commerce."
