Dusseldorf Carnival of Germany is New Addition for Carnival in Seychelles

The Seychelles Tourism Board has confirmed that the Dusseldorf Carnival of Germany is one of the new delegations coming to the 2012 “Carnival of Carnivals” in the Seychelles.

“They are coming with a strong 50-plus delegation to be part of the carnival parade and to claim their place as one of the world’s top and most-known carnivals in the unique ‘Carnival of carnivals,’” Alain St.Ange, the CEO of the Seychelles Tourism Board, said.

Dusseldorf Carnival of Germany is one of the oldest carnivals with a successful track record. This year will be their first appearance in the Indian Ocean Vanilla Islands carnival staged in Seychelles. The tropical islands of the Seychelles and La Reunion said that having Germany on board strengthens their claim that they remain the only ‘Carnival of Carnivals.’ “The world’s best and the world’s most known carnivals will all parade side by side in the carnival in Seychelles. They are followed by cultural groups from the Community of Nations bringing the theme of the carnival – the Melting Pot of Cultures -- to life. No two delegations are the same, and the procession parade remains one of the most entertaining because of the diversity it is bringing out,” Alain St.Ange said.
