In modern Cuba, this festival is celebrated from July 18 to 27 in Havana, Matanzas, and Santiago de Cuba, in honor of the Revolution. Its final parade takes place on July 26. Which annual celebration, tied to the Cuban Revolution's anniversary, connects these cities?
The Carnival of Santiago de Cuba is Cuba's most famous carnival, combining African-derived rhythms like conga santiaguera with vibrant parades. Its July timing was chosen to align with the traditional feast of Saint James and the anniversary of the July 26 attack on the Moncada Barracks in 1953.
