The carnival is a public celebration, which takes place before the Christian Lent, with a variable date (February and March depending on the year), and combining some elements such as costumes, parades and street parties. Their common characteristic is to be a time of permissiveness and some slippage.
On the night of Carnaval anything goes and the legend that is why masks are made.

The celebration of the world is the biggest carnival in Rio de Janeiro, others are internationally famous carnival of Santa Cruz de Tenerife and Cadiz in Spain, Cologne, Germany, in Oruro, Bolivia, Venice in Italy, Carnival of Barranquilla and Pasto in Colombia, Veracruz and Mazatlan in Mexico.
