Nine Mornings Festival

Nine Mornings Festival is celebrated annually during the nine mornings before Christmas December 16th – December 25th. This festival normally starts at 4:00 am.

Nine Mornings is a unique Vincentian festivity associated with the Christmas season.  Nine Mornings before Christmas, Vincentians awake in the early hours of the morning and partake in a range of activities, among them sea baths, dances (or in local parlance, fetes), bicycle riding and street concerts.  In the rural areas, the final morning of the festivity usually ended with a steel band “jump-up”.
