Carnival

If you live in Vinaròs and you don't carnival, move to Benicarló.
Carnival is the best celebration ever! Here in Vinaròs it lasts ten days and each day there is an especific event.

It always begins on friday. In this day the Tot a Orri people go to have dinner in the Paladium and after that we walk until the 'casetas' and keep the party going there. Then, on Saturday night we celebrate the queen´s presentation, we always have lots of fun. After that there isn´t any important event until Wednesday when we celebreate the 80's night. Next day, it's the Pyjama's night. The Friday's night it's called 'The crazy night' and everyone wears a costume.

The best days of carnival are clearly Saturday and Sunday, when every 'comparsero' walks around Vinaròs in the parade. We spend a lot of time making a costume for this two days but it worth it.
The parade starts at 7 at it usually lasts two hours, sometimes more.
To parade is something amazing. You walk for hours but you don't get tired and you could stay dancing until the next day. It's a feeling that I can't describe.
