When to Go to Barbados
When to Go to Barbados
Barbados is busiest from December 15 through April 15. Rates in the off-season can be half what they are during this busy period. If you go to Barbados during the high season, be aware that some hotels require you to buy some kind of meal plan, which is usually not required in the low season.
In mid-January, the Barbados Jazz Festival is a weeklong event jammed with performances by international artists, jazz legends, and local talent.
In February the week-long Holetown Festival is held at the fairgrounds to commemorate the date in 1627 when the first European settlers arrived in Barbados.
Gospelfest occurs in May and hosts performances by gospel headliners from around the world.
Dating from the 19th century, the Crop Over Festival, a month-long carnival event beginning in July and ending on Kadooment Day (a national holiday), marks the end of the sugarcane harvest.
