The Cuban community resident in Cyprus shone with its own light during the recent Limassol Carnival, where several of its members played prominent roles within the "Cuban Culture" team. This participation, organised by the Cuban Embassy in Cyprus as part of a cultural and tourism promotion initiative, was a testimony to the spirit of unity and connection with the homeland.
In an atmosphere of joy and camaraderie, members of the Cuban community in Cyprus immersed themselves in the rich cultural tradition of their country of origin. Accompanied by distinctive Cuban music and wearing costumes adorned with the vibrant colours of the Cuban flag, participants radiated pride and passion for their roots.
It was an opportunity to show Cuban identity and feel even closer to the homeland. Every dance step, every smile shared, was a reminder of the connection to Cuba and the warmth of the Cuban community in Cyprus.
The active presence of the Cubans living in Cyprus in the "Cuban Culture" team added an authentic and exciting touch to the Limassol Carnival. Through their enthusiastic participation and dedication, they contributed significantly to the promotion of Cuban culture in this long-standing event.
The Ambassador conveyed the appreciation for the support and active participation of our Cuban compatriots living in Cyprus and stressed that their presence was fundamental to the success of this initiative, and that we look forward to further strengthening our cultural ties in the future.
The Limassol Carnival was not only a festive celebration, but also a moment of emotional and cultural connection for the Cuban community in Cyprus. Through music, dance and the representation of the colours of the Cuban flag, participants demonstrated the power of culture to bring people together and keep alive the connection with their country of origin.
