Carnivale Parade

Manitou’s annual Carnivale Parade will march up Manitou Avenue this March!

In Manitou Springs, Carnivale is a mixed celebration of old tradition and freedom of expression.

This community parade through downtown comes with a kaleidoscope of costumes, music, dance, food, entertainment, and celebrations throughout town.

Many bars and dining establishments bring in music and have a special menu for the day, and beads and masks are readily available from a variety of merchants if you forget to bring your own.

People and pets of all ages are invited to join the Parade. Please remember that the Parade is family-friendly.

It is asked that marchers arrive at Memorial Park, 502 Manitou Ave, by 12 p.m. so organizers can begin lining up the Parade.
