This weekend in Rotterdam (July 26-28, 2024) is dominated by one major event:
Rotterdam Unlimited Zomercarnaval (Summer Carnival): This is by far the biggest festival happening this weekend. It's a vibrant Caribbean street party that culminates in the iconic Street Parade on Saturday, July 27th. There are also related events like the Battle of Drums on Friday evening and numerous after-parties throughout the weekend. It's a fantastic celebration of diversity with music, dance, elaborate costumes, and food.
