Spotlight #3: SF Carnaval 2012

The sights and sounds of Carnaval came alive in the City’s Mission District!

Host, Al Morales, headed to the 34th annual SF Carnaval 2012 parade to take in the cultural and musical milieu that is one of the City’s biggest celebrations.

Retrenders highlights the infectious rhythms and colorful tapestries that characterize this worldwide celebration and that symbolize the cultural diversity of the Bay Area.

Since its humble beginnings in 1979, SF Carnaval has become one of the City’s central events for dancers, musicians and artists who spend hundreds of hours each year preparing for Sunday’s grand parade.
