The Limassol Carnival (Greek: Καρναβάλι Λεμεσού, romanized: Karnaváli Lemesoú) is an annual European carnival event held in Limassol, Cyprus. The main parade is held 12 days before the start of Lent, on the Sunday before Ash Monday, 50 days before Orthodox Easter.[1][2] The festival is a colourful 10-day event of people eating, singing, satire, games, wearing costumes, and attending parties. The festival culminates with a large parade, which includes an array of floats traversing the city.[3][4][5]
