St. Thomas Carnival is about celebrating life and freedom which is done through costumes, dancing, parades, parties, pageantry, music, food, drinks, singing, family, friends and lots of fun. Loads of live music shows, pageants, fairs and mouth-watering local food and drinks are available for your delight.
This will be a high energy experience unless you opt out of the festivities and chose to relax and be an observer.
Pick the LIT 🔥package that fits what you envision for your experience, where every moment is as captivating as the destination itself.
🎶 Nightly Village
What it is: A festive open-air marketplace with food, drinks, local vendors, and live music every night.
Vibe: Family-friendly and casual — a great spot to eat, mingle, and dance.
Think: A street party meets night market. New Orleans Jazz Festival/French Quarter style
🎨 J’ouvert (pronounced “joo-vay”)
What it is: A pre-dawn street party where people dance through the streets behind music trucks, often covered in paint, powder, or mud.
Vibe: Wild, energetic, and messy — a “let go and get loose” type of celebration.
Think: A sunrise bash with music, drinks, and paint flying everywhere! (1 am until)
👑 Adult Parade
What it is: The grand Carnival parade featuring masqueraders (like you!) in full costume, dancing down the streets behind their bands for hours.
Vibe: High-energy, colorful, and performance-focused — this is the main event for showing off your costume and vibes.
Think: Full glam, feathers, sequins, music trucks, and dancing all day!
Day 1 April 29 Wednesday

Miami (MIA) 🔄 St Thomas (STT)
American Airlines flights as of 6/7/25 are $490-$600 for a round trip to and from Miami and this is subject to increase or decrease over time. I will have group rates in July 2025.
Due to people traveling from different parts of the USA, Royal504Traveler will only offer flights from Miami to St Thomas. Each traveler can manage their flight from their city to Miami OR manage their flight from their city to St Thomas
Why?
This process allows each traveler to select the airline of their choice while utilizing any points or credits they may have. This is also helpful when people are sharing a room and reside in different cities.
My group rate flights will require a minimum of 10 seats to secure that special pricing.
Here are some activities you can elect to book now and pay later (if applicable) whenever you are ready. These are completely optional. Please ensure that you see my name at the top of the screen so that I can attach your excursion to your itinerary.
I recommend not booking activities the day of your arrival or the day of departure. This will give you time to take into account any traveling delays✈️
Let's Meet On Zoom
Sometimes face to face is just a better experience and I offer that. If you have questions that were not answered here, please schedule some time so that I can answer them for you.
Don't be camera shy, I want to see who I am speaking to🤗
