Rijeka Carnival
Rijeka Carnival is the biggest and most colourful in Croatia , and always starts the year off with a spectacular bang . Celebrations begin in mid-January and continue well into February , with a series of parades and celebrations .
It starts with local men dressed in animal skins , the UNESCOlisted zvončari , chasing away evil spirits by clanging huge cowbells . Originally celebrated by the Hapsburgs in the 1800s – then forgotten – the carnival was revived in 1982 , when three groups of masked men walked down Korzo to the bemusement of locals .
Now , hundreds of thousands of spectators line the streets to cheer a kaleidoscope of oats , masked revellers and accompanying musicians . The big event is the International Carnival Parade , which kicks off on the last Sunday of February . It takes the whole afternoon for oats to pass along the main streets and reach the canal , where partying continues well into the night .
Other museums organize special exhibitions and events , such as the Coffee & Art Vernissage . The Museum Night is held under the auspices of the Council of Europe and is organized in parallel with the International Museum Day .
