Dominica's Real Mas: sensay costumes, lapo kabwit drums and mas domnik before Lent.
Dominica calls its carnival Mas Domnik, or the Real Mas, and holds it on the Monday and Tuesday before Ash Wednesday. It leans hard on tradition: sensay costumes made from rope and cloth, black devil mas, lapo kabwit drumming and bouyon music alongside calypso. This page gathers our Dominica carnival footage.
