Yes, Sinterklaas is celebrated in Suriname, where it is known as "Sinterklaasfeest." The celebration features similar traditions to those in the Netherlands, including the arrival of Sinterklaas by boat and festivities leading up to December 5th, known as Pakjesavond, when gifts are exchanged. The holiday is an important cultural event, reflecting Suriname's Dutch colonial heritage and the blending of local customs.
