Carnival parades, fetes, competitions and other parties are important to the economic growth of many islands in the Caribbean. Carnival is a cultural event that attracts hundreds of thousands of Caribbean natives and tourists from different countries each year. However, despite the positive economic and social benefits derived from Carnival, Caribbean islands that host such events are most at risk due to the unsustainable effects that Carnival production can have on a country.
