Regardless of the weather forecast, it’s guaranteed to be hot in the Exhibition Place region this Saturday. That’s when the Scotiabank Caribbean Carnival comes to a head with its most celebrated event—the Grand Parade. The procession will feature dancers, steel pan drummers, and hundreds of spectacular costumes over a 3.5-kilometre route down Lakeshore Avenue. Admission is free, with some ticketed seating for those who want to ensure they get a prime spot.
