Brazilian Carnival according to Brazilians According to a research done last year, only 31% of Brazilian really meant to celebrate the 2016 Carnival. The majority of the interviwed (55% of total) meant to getting the opportunity for relaxing, meanwhile only 8% of the interviwed meant to celebrate the Carnival going to parties and things like that. This research show us that Brazilians do like the Carnival holidays, but not exactly for partying. It is very common some many people (especially older people) to get the opportunity either for spending with their families or going to calm places, like the countryside. We can realize by the research that, although the Brazilians like the Carnival holidays, it is not necessarily about partying, drinking and dancing for them.
