GoToStCroix.com extends a warm welcome to those who have traveled specifically for this event! Please enjoy photos from previous parades.

Vendors set up and sell souveniors, local food and drink and much more!

Floats and parade participants go all out with deorating in the traditional purple-gold-green combo.

Things can get a little crazy- but that is part of the fun! And of course there are many, many beads!

In order for you to fit in- you will have to find something wild and crazy to wear!

Even dancing to live music at the bar across the street!

The best part is- this all takes place at the beach- so you can take a dip and cool off on the water when ever you need to- the kids can play and swim all day.

Parades begin at 12 noon in La Valle , located on St. Croix's North Shore. Parade ends at Full Moon Beach Bar (formally Cane Bay Beach Bar) Arrive early to the parade route!
