The experience

See WIKA move through central Windhoek

WIKA's public procession brings carnival societies, costumes, music and satirical floats into central Windhoek.

The official route determines the day: choose one good viewing point, then leave enough time for the city around the procession rather than chasing it by car.

Experience FAQ

Watching the WIKA procession

Q01Is the procession held on the same day every year?

No. The official WIKA calendar and route must be checked for the specific year.

Q02Do we need a ticket?

Street viewing may be public, but any reserved access or paired event follows the organizer's current rules.

Plan with Alex

Build Windhoek Karneval around procession day

Cross Deadvlei at dawn, follow desert wildlife tracks near Swakopmund and wait beside an Etosha waterhole as elephants emerge through the dust.

We will begin with your dates, your pace and the image that brought Namibia into your mind. From there, I will draw the journey that belongs to you.

Portrait of Alex

I want Namibia's defining moments at their best: Deadvlei before the heat, the living desert while tracks are still sharp, Etosha as elephants approach the water. Around them, we make time for the guides, makers and conservationists who turn a beautiful road into a journey you understand.
