French Riviera
Nice Carnival: King of the World's Treasures
From February 10th till 26th, the Promenade des Anglais and the Paillon area welcome the parades of the Carnival de Nice, created in 1873. You can attend battles of flowers thrown from the floats, or parades of floats more than 10 meters high. Each year, the theme is different, so figures and floats are built in secret during winter.
