KISSIMMEE, Fla. — The rhythms of the islands, the aroma of authentic Caribbean cuisine, and the vibrant colors of cultural celebration will once again fill the waterfront as the Caribbean Fusion Festival returns to Kissimmee Lakefront Park on Sunday, April 26, 2026, from noon to 7 p.m. at the Veterans Lawn.

Now celebrating 36 years in operation, the free, family-friendly festival is hosted by the Caribbean and Floridian Association, Inc. (CAFA), a longtime community organization dedicated to promoting Caribbean culture, unity, and service throughout Central Florida.

Each year, the festival transforms Kissimmee’s scenic lakefront into a lively cultural showcase featuring live entertainment, flavorful island dishes, arts and crafts vendors, and engaging experiences for all ages. From steel pan melodies and high-energy dance rhythms to traditional Caribbean favorites prepared fresh onsite, attendees can expect a full day of music, flavor, and fun.

Festivalgoers will have the opportunity to explore handcrafted goods, connect with local businesses and organizations, and celebrate the rich diversity that makes Osceola County such a dynamic community.

This year’s event is presented with support from the City of Kissimmee, Experience Kissimmee, Toho Water Authority, Kissimmee Utility Authority (KUA), and Positively Osceola, along with additional community partners committed to celebrating cultural diversity in Osceola County.

Admission to the Caribbean Fusion Festival is free, making it one of the region’s most anticipated spring cultural events.
