February 14, 15 & 17 – Carnival Parades
February 18 – Burning of Juan Carnaval
The vibrant traditional parades take place along Cozumel Island’s Malecón, where colorful floats and lively music troupes gather alongside the beloved carnival characters we all cherish.
But Cozumel’s Carnival is more than just parades: visitors can also immerse themselves in ancient Afro-Caribbean traditions, discover unique curiosities, and experience the island’s ultimate celebration, proudly marking 152 years of history and festivity.
