Carnival Dates
Carnival is a four day event that changes dates every year. It begins forty days before the Catholic holiday, Lent.
The celebrations start Friday, prior to Ash Wednesday up until the following Tuesday . Ash Wednesday is a day used for recovering from the previous sleepless nights. However some cities in Brazil will present Carnival activities until the following weekend.
Carnival is the peak holiday season in Brazil. Offices and businesses close during the festivities.Brazilians take time off and travel, so make sure to plan your trip well in advance. Remember, you are competing for a hotel room, not only with tourists from all over the world, but also with brazilians.
