Carnival and costumbes I live in a city where the carnival is one of the most important events of the year. During that week many people come from all over the world to see our festival. All the people use costumes, masks, paints and everthing that they find beacuse there are only two rules: to disguise like their characters and have fun. All the week you can find groups of persons (amateurs or professionals) singing in the streets with guitars and drums. Professionals sing in the theatre and they compete each year for to be the best. The last year the winners were a group disguised of chameleons.
