Teaching Carnival’s History Through Canboulay

Kambule, written and directed by Eintou Pearl Springer, brings to life the story of the 1881 Canboulay Riots — a defining moment in Carnival’s history rooted in resistance and cultural identity. Representatives of Idakeda Group Ltd join Virmala in studio to discuss the Kambule Spirit of Carnival Festival 2026, a national initiative focused on education, youth engagement, and community involvement.

With school programmes and creative workshops at its core, the festival seeks to reconnect young people and the wider public to the deeper meaning of Carnival and the legacy of Canboulay.
