Carabram is an annual multi-cultural festival in Brampton, Ontario, founded in 1982. The festival was founded after volunteers from different ethnic communities wanted to organize a festival celebrating diversity and cross-cultural friendship. With a name based on a similar Toronto event, the Caravan Festival of Cultures, Carabram's first event included Italian, Scottish, Ukrainian, and West Indian pavilions. By 2003, forty-five-thousand visitors visited 18 pavilions. Canada itself had an anchor pavilion in the late-1980s and early-1990s, but ceased when it failed to get sponsorship. Brampton Transit runs a free service connecting the pavilions, for people presenting a ticket to the festival. PavilionsCountries, continents, states and geographic or cultural regions that have been represented at Carabram through the years include Africa, Arab (dubbed "Arabian"), Canada, Caribbean*, China, Croatia, Chile, England, Germany*, Greece, Hawaii*, Hispanic, the Netherlands, India*, Ireland*, Israel, Italy*, Macedonia*, Mexico, Myanmar*, Pakistan*, Philippines*, Poland*, Portugal, Romania, and Ukraine*. Those pavilions marked with asterisks were part of the 2006 festivities. Timeline
