One of Africa’s most exhilarating music and adventure festivals, The Vic Falls Carnival, returns in 2022 after a 2-year hiatus, from 29 April to 1 May, at one of the Seven Wonders of the World for a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
From adrenalin-pumping adventure activities, an incredible landmark setting and a music-loving crowd, all mixed with local and international music-fans celebrating an artist lineup that showcases the best talent from around the African continent.

Following the major success of the last 9 years, the Vic Falls Carnival has once again created the best way to spend three days over a long weekend at Victoria Falls!
The Vic Falls Carnival has always taken place over the New Year Period, cementing it as one of Africa’s top NYE events – in 2022, the organisers have looked to reformat the event and its venue – from 2022 the Carnival’s home venue will be at the signature Elephant Hills Resort for the full festival period.
As an iconic destination festival, the Vic Falls Carnival has an array of incredible transport options for Southern Africa with packages best suited for a festival-goer’s region and pocket – and recently announced all ports into Zimbabwe have been opened! With a variety of VVIP, VIP, standard & budget travel options, there’s a package for everyone – four star hotel options, self-drive glamping or cross-country Overlanders to the carnival and budget camping – we’ve got the travel package option for you.
