MARIKEL Productions

Located at 7381 LaTijera Blvd., Unit 451034 in Los Angeles, California, MARIKEL Productions is the driving force behind the vibrant cultural phenomenon known as Los Angeles Carnival. More than just an event, the Los Angeles Carnival embodies the essence of a city, a county, a region, and its people. With its poignant tagline, 'The Voice of a People, The Rhythm of A Region,' Los Angeles Carnival is a dynamic fusion of performance art, educational outreach, and community engagement.

Since its inception in 1998 by founder Marie Kellier, the Los Angeles Carnival has been a beacon of cultural celebration and artistic expression. Rooted in the traditions of Caribbean carnivals, the event has evolved to embrace the distinctive vibe of Los Angeles, blending rich cultural heritage with the diverse tapestry of the city. While reminiscent of a traditional parade, Los Angeles Carnival transcends mere procession, inviting masqueraders and revelers to engage with the public, spreading joy and infectious energy through dance and music.

Beyond its flagship event, Los Angeles Carnival extends its reach through Los Angeles Carnival On Tour, a mobile and educational initiative dedicated to bringing the carnival experience to schools, neighborhoods, and corporate settings. Through imaginative workshops, theme-based performances, and interactive installations, Los Angeles Carnival On Tour introduces audiences to the carnival's vibrant spirit and cultural significance, fostering understanding, appreciation, and unity within diverse communities.
