The carnival in the world.

The Carnival!

Carnival: It’s the period of merrymaking and feasting celebrated just before Lent, where people have fun through rides, games, and sideshows.

The word carnival is tied to the Shrove Tuesday, because “carne” means meat in Latin.

Each carnival is an event where people do party and eat many products, until the Shrove Tuesday; this day people eat copious meal like fats beef before the Lent.

However, the customs are very different between each country. We try to explain the difference and the similarities between four carnivals, which are known in the entire world:

- Carnival of Quebec

- Carnival of Rio

- Carnival of New Orleans

- Carnival of Venice
