The 2025 edition of St. Thomas Carnival in the U.S. Virgin Islands will be held from April 27 to May 3, 2025.
The 73rd annual Carnival celebration will feature traditional events, including the Queen and Princess Pageants, Calypso Monarch, Pan-O-Rama, and the highly anticipated J’ouvert experience.
“I am excited to invite everyone from neighboring islands, mainland US, diaspora across the world, and lovers of sun, sea and culture to join us for the 2025 St. Thomas Carnival,” said Joseph Boschulte, USVI Commissioner of Tourism. “As St. Thomas Carnival continues to grow in size and notoriety, this year, we are preparing to host an invigorating week-long celebration, highlighting our rich culture, picturesque island, and beautiful people.”
Revelers can experience the U.S. Virgin Islands’ signature free nightly musical performances at the Carnival Village featuring some of the industry’s top local, regional and international acts. The best of St. Thomas will be on display, including the St. Thomas Carnival Boat Races and delicious cuisine as well as arts and crafts from local vendors at the popular Food Fair.
“Exposing our culture through food, music and vibes for Carnival 2025” is this year’s theme.
