Saturday, Aruba celebrated the Grand Lighting Parade Oranjestad in a show of color, music, dancing and of course, lights!

As Aruba is in the midst of the 70th Carnival celebrations, one of the most attractive events is the Lighting Parade, as it takes place at night in a cooler party atmosphere. This year, a total of nine Carnival groups participated, each with its unique theme and colors, but all with a festive ambience.

The group sequence for the parade was:
1. TOB Carnival Group

2. Infinity Carnival Group

3. Royal Carnival Group

4. Empire Carnival Group

5. Champagne Carnival Group

6. Dushi Carnival Group

7. Los Laga Bai Carnival Group

8. OPC Carnival Group

9. Colours Carnival Group

The parade started at the Aruba Entertainment Center in Dakota, passing through Avenida Milio Croes, Vondellaan, LG Smith Boulevard, and ended on the Turbo Roundabout on the Boulevard.

The official route will be announced in the coming days, so stay tuned! And check the schedule so you don鈥檛 miss any of the most important activities for Carnival 70, which will culminate in a weekend of back-to-back parades in Oranjestad and San Nicolas.
