Carnival comes, the urge of letting ourselves go is getting stronger: no more serious clothes, people change their habits and for a little while, only a tiny little while, everything goes wild.

The majority of cities in Italy have their own carnival celebration and it tends to be very different. Some carnivals last for a month, some for a week and some for only one day.

They are really into the carnival experience; however, most carnivals run during the month of February.
