Several elements can help you in your choice of dates for a stay in Barbados. You should know that the year is divided into a dry season (December to April) and a rainy season (June to October). This characteristic is already felt on the price of tickets. If the animation is diffuse throughout the year, some festivities are quite periodic. Let's mention the 3 most famous ones: The Crop Over Festival, the Barbadian carnival which takes place in July/August; The Barbados Food & Rum Festival which takes place in October and finally, The Run Barbados, the marathon which takes place in December and will celebrate its 40th edition this year.
