Mardi Gras in Haiti

Mardi Gras in Haiti is an exciting, sensuous and spectacular display of Haitian people; their creativity, art, culture, religion and music. Visit Sakapfet.com for information, photos and videos of Mardi Gras in Haiti since 2001. Mardi Gras "always falls on the Tuesday that is 46 days before Easter.
