\u201cArrival\u201d of Carnestoltes. With the carnival king\u2019s arrival, the party officially begins. That’s why he comes stomping, as always, between music, confetti, glitter and lots of party.<\/span><\/p>\n

Costume bed race. The contestants build beds on wheels, which have a theme and have to win a race through the streets of Sitges. Fun is guaranteed, whether you participate or if you are watching!<\/span><\/p>\n


\nSunday, 23rd<\/span><\/h3>\n

R\u00faa Infantil and R\u00faa de la Disbauxa. The first is during the day and the second when the night begins, they are two parades of dozens of floats with music, stunning costumes and dances in which you won\u2019t stop dancing and get amazed with the amounts of sequins and feathers that you\u2019ll\u00a0 <\/span>see. For some reason it is one of the best carnivals in Spain!<\/span><\/p>\n

Wednesday, 26th<\/span><\/h3>\n

Burial of Carnestoltes. Another parade that features the king’s float, but on its way to be buried on the beach.
