We are very excited to be part of the amazing Katumba Halloween Carnival again this year! 
Every autumn, the nights grow longer, the air turns colder, and the line between worlds begins to blur. Halloween has always been more than costumes and sweets, it’s a time to honour our ancestors, to gather in ceremony, to transform fear into celebration.
This year, Katumba Halloween Carnival reclaims those deeper roots. Our theme “Ancestral Spirits, Ritual Fire” weaves together the diasporic origins of carnival with the ancient pagan traditions of Samhain.
Born from rituals of remembrance, resistance, and renewal, carnival has always been a living space where communities gather to drum, dance, and light the darkness with rhythm and spirit.
