WILLEMSTAD - It's almost time for the Tumba Festival again. Registrations for the new edition are on Sunday. This year the music festival is dedicated to Feco Gomes. He is the chairman of music association Amak, the organizer of the festival.
Tumba is the traditional music played during Carnival. The popular festival has been canceled for two years in a row due to the COVID-19 pandemic. During the festival, the road march song is chosen for the carnival parade. From 23 to 27 January, the Curaçao Festival Center will compete for the title Rei or Reina di Tumba 2023.
Via the Festival di Tumba app, you can follow the latest developments around the festival, including registrations.
