Here are some wild Carnival facts, figures and customs
Ash Wednesday is just around the corner . So you know what that means. Carnival celebrations for 2023 are in full force around the world. It’s a time when people – particularly those in areas with strong Roman Catholic traditions – indulge their wild side before the solemn, introspective days of Lent commence. With so many participants and so many different celebration spots , there’s bound to be a lot of fascinating tidbits to uncover surrounding Carnival.
Months before Carnival, locals collect eggshells, then paint them or cover them in striking colors and fill them with confetti. In Spanish, it’s called cascarones de confeti. They’re used in a battle in which Don Carnal, who represents the Roman god Janus, is at war with Doña Cuaresma . Don Carnal always loses. Flour power Geez – there really is something about Carnival and throwing things.
