Review:

Sitges comes alive every year in winter just before Lent with its most famous yearly celebrations – the Sitges Carnival. Hailed as one of the top ten carnival celebrations in the world, Sitges Carnival is a popular annual event and one of the brightest, most colorful, and vibrant carnivals on the Catalan coastline. Celebrated throughout Spain, Carnival is held a few days in winter before the forty days of Lent begin, giving people the chance to get down and party before settling in for winter. The festival begins on a different date each year, but must always start on a Fat Thursday, and the largest parades traditionally take place on the Sunday and the Tuesday (Shrove Tuesday) of the festival.
