Montserrat is one of just two Caribbean islands to host the last Carnival of the year, as well as the first – it begins in December and ends on January 1st! This exuberant festival showcases the island’s wealth of talent, music, culture and history – the perfect climax to the end of the year.

St Patrick's Day Festival

March

Montserrat is the only country outside of Ireland to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day as a national holiday and it commemorates a thwarted slave uprising in 1768. Festival highlights include outdoor soca and reggae concerts, street parades, pub crawls and food fairs. Land and sea tours, hikes and a road race round out the slate of activities that make this a truly unforgettable 2 weeks!

Cudjoe Head Festival

The village of Cudjoe Head was named after an 18th century slave who met a tragic end after being caught trying to run away. This annual celebration of Montserrat’s African heritage started in 1989 and the normally quiet village comes alive with the sounds of steelband music, iron bands, drumming and the masquerades.
