Carnival Monday and Tuesday holidays in July have been pushed back to September.
This was announced on radio by Prime Minister Dr. Ralph Gonsalves, who said the new holiday dates will be September 6th and 7th.
This is the second consecutive year since the Covid-19 pandemic that the July holidays for Vincy Mas have been pushed back.
