Carnival, I love you!
Have you every heard about the Carnival on Gran Canaria Island?
(firmenpresse) - After months of preparation, Gran Canaria is ready to welcome the time in the year everybody has been longing for, Carnival. The climate conditions, sunshine and therefore friendly temperatures, make it good for 3 weeks of laughing, dancing and celebrating all across the island.
Worldwide known, the carnival in Gran Canaria counts as one of the world’s best and can definitely compete with those in Río de Janeiro, Trinidad and Venice.
This tradition, which hand back to the 16th century, was often prohibited. Neither King Carlos I nor General Franco wanted to hear about public satirical speeches or singings. The official prohibition, stated by King Carlos I on 1523, lasted almost 200 years until Felipe V abolished it. When General Franco died on 1975, this prohibition lost its validness, so that we can today party free and cheerfully
A special event beside the election of the carnival-queen, is the election of the "Drag-Queen". This exceptional show has gained popularity a lot throughout the last years. However there was a ‘special’ prohibition in the 18th century in which people were not allowed to dress like the other sexes. This gala, knows as Europs´s best Drag Gala, is now days nearly as important as the election of the carnival-queen and could not be dismissed from Gran Canarias’ carnival
The island of Gran Canaria is one of the world’s best-known gay holiday destinations, and counts especially during the carnival as „This place to be“; nobody wants to miss this yearly event surrounded by the warmth of spring while still having cold temperatures in the rest of Europe.
What else could be more grazy than having fun during this time?
