Roses Carnival
The Carnival of Roses is back in full force, to enjoy a few days full of debauchery!
In Roses, it is clear to everyone that carnival is different and special. The great Carnival party in Roses begins with the symbolic transfer of power (the key and the euro) that the main representative of the town makes to the king of scoundrels.
The mortuary entourage of the deceased Carnival King, the burning of the doll on the beach on a pyre and the reading of the will are the traditional acts that put an end to Carnival and that end the days of debauchery in Roses.
Monday afternoon is when the inhabitants of Roses follow the procession of the mortuary procession of the Sardine, headed by the bishop with a red miter, an altar boy and a joke notary, the Kings of the Carnival of the year and the laments of a large number of crybaby and crybaby
At the end of the journey is when the doll that the Carnival King has become, after so much partying, is placed on the pyre and burned.
The King of Carnival ends his days with the reading of a will. The Carnival King's will is a satirical text that focuses on the most outstanding events that occurred in Roses during the year. It is read publicly on Carnival Monday, once the doll representing the Carnival King has been cremated, and makes reference to the social and political life of the town.
We wait for you!
