Jon kunnu, often referred to as "Jonkunu" or "Junkanoo," is a traditional Bahamian festival that features vibrant parades, colorful costumes, and lively music, typically held during the Christmas season and on New Year's Day. It has African roots and reflects the cultural heritage of the Bahamas, combining elements of African, European, and Caribbean traditions. Participants, known as "Junkanoo groups," perform rhythmic dances and play instruments such as drums, cowbells, and horns, creating a festive and energetic atmosphere. The celebration is a significant expression of Bahamian identity and community spirit.
