Bratislava Carnival / “Fašiangy”
Join the carnival parade through the streets of the city, a competition for the best mask, donut tastings, workshops, interviews with experts, guided tours and a concert
Carnival, which begins the day after the Three Kings and is defined by the moving Tuesday before Ash Wednesday, used to be celebrated not only in countryside but also in cities. The celebrations had a specific form in the urban environment. Bratislava decided to continue the traditions of carnival celebrations from the past, when carnival fun was mainly contributed by various craft guilds, associations and associations that organized masked parades, tournaments and dance parties.
Part of Bratislava carnivals are the traditional carnival cones, lectures on the history and customs of the carnival period as well as rich cultural program.
