    CARNIVAL AROUND THE WORLD

    It’s carnival time! The exact dates of these traditional celebrations change every
    year but they usually happen between February and early March. The parties
    generally start on a Thursday and end the next Tuesday.

    Carnivals offer local adaptations and mixes of practices like wearing of masks and
    costumes and holding of parades, and street parties, too. In the Americas,
    carnivals present elements of ancient celebrations started by Native Peoples or
    Africans.

    Anthropologists generally consider carnival to be something like the ancients used


    to celebrate when the winter ended. They welcomed the spring with big parties and
    joy.

    From Oruro in Bolivia, all over Recife in Brazil, Barraquilla in Colombia, El Callao in
    Venezuela, to Belgium and Austria, Croatia and Hungary, many festivities make
    part of the Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity for you
    to discover and enjoy!
