Partner with Berkeley Carnival Revolution
Help us make Carnival possible.
Carnival is more than what happens on the road.
It is the months of designing, building, creating, teaching, gathering and preparing that happen long before the music starts.
At Berkeley Carnival Revolution, we bring together creativity, culture, community and the spirit of Traditional Mas to create an experience that is imaginative, accessible and rooted in connection.
Your partnership helps make that experience possible.
Whether you are a small business, cultural institution, individual supporter or organization looking for a meaningful way to participate, there is a place for you at BCR.

More Than a Carnival Band
Berkeley Carnival Revolution is a creative community built around Mas.
Our work extends beyond Carnival Monday and Tuesday. Throughout the season, BCR creates opportunities for people to learn, make, collaborate and experience culture through workshops, creative programming, community engagement and the making of Mas.
We believe Carnival can be a space for creativity, cultural expression, connection and participation.
We also believe it should be accessible.
That means finding ways to make participation possible while meeting the very real costs of bringing a band to the road — from materials and transportation to music, refreshments, safety and operations.
When you support BCR, you are helping us build more than costumes. You are helping us build an experience.
