This year’s theme for Rotterdam Carnival events is “The Revelation of Angels and Jab Jab”. The theme is based on the Chinese Philosophy of Yin and Yang and is inspired by a combination of the modern day Caribbean carnival aspects as well as the more traditional Jab Molassie culture better known in Grenada as Jab Jab.
The principle of Yin and Yang is that all things exist as contradictory yet inseparable opposites, for example, female-male, dark-light and old-young. The idea behind this year’s theme is to inspire people to look at the “GOOD”

As many of us are still suffering from the financial crisis caused by the health situation around the world, there is also still a large group of people that clearly understand how important it is to partake in stress relieving activities. One of these activities being the annual celebration of carnival in Rotterdam and all across the world. This group of carnival loving people (who are not easily intimated) unfortunately had yet another big pill the swallow as we’ve recently received word from the Rotterdam Summer Carnival Foundation that this year’s traditional Rotterdam carnival celebration will not take place as it has been pushed back to 2022 due to too many complications and uncertainties. Even though we belong to the group of "the not easily intimated" people, we understand their decision as we all have to face reality.
