WILLEMSTAD - The organization of the Tumba Festival 2022 is very careful. Although the popular carnival activity has not yet been officially cancelled, AMAK is giving everyone with an 'early bird ticket' their money back.
For this, the Curaçao Festival Center is open on December 29 from 12:00 to 18:00. People who want their money back must have their entrance ticket with them as proof of purchase. Those who do not have an entrance ticket with them will not get their money back, according to the music association Amak.
This will most likely be the second year in a row that the popular Tumba festival has been cancelled. During the festival, the roadmarch of the carnival procession is chosen. The festival was last held in 2020. Ray Lauffer was then crowned Tumba King with 'Kòrsou T'ei Bula'.
As is known, high-risk events are not allowed for the time being with the outbreak of the omicron variant. The festival is scheduled for January 31 to February 4, 2022.
