Cádiz Carnival — Spain’s Greatest Festival Board

Souvenir cutting board celebrating CГЎdiz Carnival — the largest carnival in Spain and one of the most famous in the world, rivaling Rio de Janeiro and Venice. For 11 days every February, the ancient streets of CГЎdiz transform into an open-air theatre of music, satire, and costume. The highlight is the ‘chirigotas’ — groups of performers who write witty, often politically biting songs performed on street corners to roaring crowds. Unlike the samba-focused carnivals of Brazil, CГЎdiz Carnival is about wit, humor, and the art of making people laugh — a tradition dating back to the 16th century.
