Carnaval del pais 2014

Gualeguichu is the location for the most important of Argentina’s Carnival celebrations. Known as the “country’s carnival” (El Carnaval del Pais), the event takes place every summer.

During the Carnaval del Pais, 3 samba clubs compete for the title of “kings of the carnival”. Each comparsa includes over 700 dancers, and is accompanied by 5 huge stages, a drum band (batucada) and a singing band. Each club chooses a theme and a theme song, and the theme is brought to life using the stages, costumes, decorations and songs.
