Caribbean Festival of Arts, usually known as CARIFESTA, is a global multicultural occasion sorted out on an intermittent premise by the nations of the Caribbean. The fundamental design is to accumulate specialists, performers, creators, and to display the folkloric and imaginative signs of the Caribbean and Latin American area. The main Caribbean Festival of Arts occurred in 1972. This occasion was composed by Guyana's then-President Forbes Burnham, in light of a comparative occasion that occurred in Puerto Rico in 1952. He held ious meetings with Caribbean specialists and essayists that in the end prompted the main Carifesta.

CARIFESTA was imagined out of an interest from a territorial get-together of craftsmen who were at the time taking an interest in a Writers and Artists Convention in Georgetown, Guyana, in 1970 and which agreed with Guyana's turn to Republican status. The social town life of CARIFESTA is expected to be a blend of the States of the Caribbean Community CARICOM; the more extensive Caribbean, Latin America; and a portrayal of Africa, Asia, Europe and North America It is a dream of the people groups with establishes somewhere down in Asia, Europe and Africa, meeting up to play out their fine arts and grasping writing motivated by the Caribbean's own particular curious disposition; artworks drawn from the dazzling tropical environment; and the visionary legacy of our ancestors
