About the Tumba Festival
The word Tumba originates from the word “Tambú.” Around the beginning of the last century, it started out as a double dance in binary measure — an outline in which the authors put rumors to music.
Currently, the Tumba Festival is a four-day musical event where the best local composers, singers, and bands compete to have their piece selected as the year’s official Carnival road march Tumba song. This isn’t just any festival. It’s a musical extravaganza!
