Rooted in tradition and cultural pride, St. John Celebration culminates in a fusion of festivities that honor both Emancipation Day and Independence Day.
“This year’s theme is a powerful reminder of who we are as a people,” said Joseph Boschulte, U.S. Virgin Islands Commissioner of Tourism. “As we celebrate our heritage, St. John Celebration gives us the opportunity to share our stories, showcase our culture, and warmly welcome visitors to be part of our unique Caribbean experience.”
Adding to the excitement, the festival’s signature events will spotlight local musicians, artisans, dancers, and chefs, offering a cultural experience for residents and visitors alike.
“Our goal this year is to deepen the connection between community and culture,” said Ian Turnbull, Director of Festivals and Events. “From traditional moko jumbies and calypso to modern performances and local cuisine, we’re inviting everyone to celebrate what makes St. John and the Virgin Islands so special.”
St. John Celebration 2025 is open to the public and welcomes attendees from around the world to experience the spirit and culture of the U.S. Virgin Islands.
