With the speed of light, after the New Year's celebrations, the time has come when we can all surrender to the fantasy world, throw away our jeans and sweaters and jump into the most dazzling and unusual carnival costume. In order to have enough time for all the preparations, it is worth taking a look at where we are all invited to this year's Carnival Saturday and Tuesday's masquerade.

There are already rumors of carnival schemes around town, and we are all already thinking about whether we will be unrecognizable in the form of a mermaid, a scary zombie, a wizard, a dinosaur or a bee. In any case, it's time to prepare confetti and those nostalgic blowers with which we used to annoy our mother at birthday parties as soon as possible, and make a plan with our friends, where to get the dancing crunch. The choice of carnival festivities is also very diverse this year, and there will undoubtedly be a masquerade that we can dance late into the night.
