Beginning of the 2007 Carnival in Torrevieja, Spain

BEGINNING OF THE 2007 TORREVIEJA CARNIVAL.

From the 27th of January until the 18th of February 2007.

The Carnival events will start on Saturday 27th of January at the Municipal Theater of Torrevieja. During the official opening of the Carnival festivities, the Queens of the Carnival will be presented to the public.

The scheduled events organized by the Cultural Association of the Torrevieja Carnival will go on with the celebration of the Children’s Carnival Dance on the 30th of January, followed on the 4th with the Street Carnival Music Competition where five street bands will compete. On the 11th of February, the big Carnival Parade Competition takes place and to end this year’s Carnival festivities, the traditional Night Carnival Parade will take place on the 17th of February.

Carnivals in Spain are a fantastic experience and offer the chance to watch and take part with the Spanish people, from the oldest old ladies to the youngest children, all dressed in their carnival finery, dancing and partying on the streets all day and more often than not, well into the night.

If you cant make the festival then do the next best thing, take our Virtual tour of Torrevieja.
