Around the world, carnival is a significant custom in numerous nations and cultures. There are parties and parades, many food and drink options, and people dressing up. For ages, the Carnival celebration has been a part of human folklore. Carnivals are where reality takes a back seat.
Experience some of the best carnivals around the world , where every street's colors are transformed, music blasts with dancing, and joy spreads endlessly! Each and every carnival goer becomes a part of a vibrant, living work of art. So, put on your sparkliest outfit and let the spectacle begin – because at a carnival, life is not just lived; it's celebrated!
Leaving all traditional carnivals behind, London hosts one of the best carnivals around the world, Notting Hill Carnival , every year since 1966! The street turns happening with elaborate floats, more than 500 performers, and music that makes you groove at every beat. Almost three million people attend; be one of the crowd!
Fat Tuesday, also known as Mardi Gras, originated in the House of Bourbon and dates back to European customs from the 17th and 18th centuries. Rio Carnival was formerly a celebration for the wealthy and famous, but these days, it's a carnival for everyone, with more and more people of all ages taking to the streets. Regarding attire, there are no rules! Don't be afraid to experiment when it comes to wearing the most unique and obscure Carnival costume.
The brightest carnival in the Caribbean, Trinidad and Tobago's Carnival , is with two days of crazy, rum-soaked fun. It starts with the sunrise street party “J’ouvert,” which doesn’t stop until Shrove Tuesday! This tiny island’s carnival parades inspire many others, with its Mas bands dancing to the beat of calypso music! The good times continue at Carnival celebrations that span from laid-back beach parties and breakfast gatherings to lavish invite-only events when the sun sets and rises.
The "Carnivale di Venezia," or Venice Carnival , known for its spectacular masquerade parties, offers a luxurious twist on the Carnival custom. Costumed participants flock to St. Mark's Square with swishing dresses, ornamented wigs, gentlemen's cloaks, and handcrafted Venetian masks that are sold all around the city. Public parades and costumed pub crawls at Venice's bacari, or wine bars, are open to everyone, but evening balls and Venetian music shows with dinner and dancing come with royal dress codes and corresponding price tags.
Nice in France does not just arrange “nice” but an absolutely delightful and one of the largest Mardi Gras Parades in the world. The one that makes the streets a blanket of flowers, The Nice Carnival , is the highlight of all days! It reportedly takes 72 hours just to pick the 3,000 flowers that adorn the floats. It welcomes Lent with literal streets of flowers, with over 100,000 showered on the crowds by two costumed performers! Be among over a million enthusiastic spectators and 1000 entertainers turning this march into a fiesta!
