Smartphone Photo Carnival is a new carnival approved by the Cross River State Govt. & endorsed by the Calabar Carnival Commission.
The people of Calabar and Nigeria as a whole will be given the license to party as a unit on the beautiful streets of Calabar while shooting everything before their eyes with their smartphone camera.
This Carnival is all about celebrating Humanity and the way we see the world through our smartphone camera, & the history of Calabar all in one breath.
The smartphone Photo carnival will hold on the 23rd of December; kick-off point is the "Finger Park" by the UJ Esuene sports stadium by 12noon. It'll be a street party stretching 1.4km with some stops along the way for highlights and more memories to be made.
We advice the general public to have their phones fully charged and still come out with their power banks if they can because photos will be taken almost every minute en route.
Expected to attend are all smartphone photography enthusiasts, carnival lovers, dancers, models, fashion designers, artists, and everyone out there. Even the nerds would feel at home in this Carnival.
