Carnival on island Lošinj!
There is a long and well-known carnival tradition on the entire Kvarner Bay area, including these islands.
The carnival madness traditionally started with the handover of town keys. The carnival will end on Tuesday, February 25, with a carnival parade and the Testament read to the crowd in the local dialect, presenting all important events marking the past year in a humorous way and from the perspective of an ordinary man. In the end, the puppet that symbolizes the Prince of Carnival is punished and burned in the bonfire to take away the sins and mischievous behavior displayed throughout the year to the ashes with him.
