Antigua Carnival T-Shirt Mas in St. John's
T-Shirt Mas is the street-level event that opens Antigua Carnival's public parading season, typically held on a Saturday in late July in St John's, where revellers wear troupe-branded t-shirts customised with gems, tie-dye and fringe rather than full costumes, offering an accessible, low-cost entry point into Carnival's street celebrations before the more elaborate Parade of Bands later in the calendar.
