ABOUT San Francisco Carnaval:
San Francisco Cultural Arts Traditions (SFCAT) proudly presents California's largest annual multi-cultural celebrations, San Francisco Carnaval 2012, taking place Memorial Day weekend in San Francisco's Mission District. San Francisco Carnaval, themed "Spanning Borders; Bridging Cultures," will be held Saturday May 26 and Sunday May 27.
San Francisco Carnaval Grand Parade is an extraordinary, must-see event that is represented by and honors cultures from around the world. Alongside brilliant floats, lavishly dressed performers and musicians will entertain as the parade makes its way through the Mission District. A vast variety of cultures will be represented, featuring old and new traditions by way of music, dance and artistry.
As one of the Bay Area's most beloved two-day events, the free, family-friendly San Francisco Carnaval Festival showcases a diverse array of food, live music and activities for all.
