Miami/Bahamas Goombay Festival



Started in 1976 by descendants of the Bahamian immigrants who first settled Coconut Grove, today Goombay is one of the largest Black heritage festivals in the U.S.

The fest is a ton of fun for all, the highlight being the amazingly colorful junkanoo costumes on parade. There's also music, activities for kids, and vendors selling a variety of arts, crafts and food.
