Perhaps the most famous of all festivals, the Carnival is the epitome of celebrations in Goa. It is celebrated for three days and three nights and preceded by the month of Lent (February), this festival brings alive every nook and corner of Goa. Introduced by the Portuguese colonial rule in the 18th century, this festival is that time of the year when the legendary King Momo takes over the operations of the festivals and events.
History
Though introduced by the Portuguese, the Carnival is a part of ancient Rome and Greece which later crept into the culture of Spain and Portugal. Initially, the Carnival had a touch of Portuguese style to it, but with time and India's independence, the festival began to be celebrated in full Goanese style.
Celebrations
Goa Carnival, the most fun-filled festival in Goa, is meant to be a feast of food, drinks, music, dance and fun - before the 40 day period of fasting and absenteeism of meat in the month of Lent. The days are marked by colourful and musical parades which initiate in the capital Panaji and travel throughout the state making it one of the most popular festivals of Goa. The evenings are kept for gala balls, and people engage in partying on the streets all through the night. The float parade in Panaji is led by King Momo, who floats a specially decorated float to declare the initiation of eating, drinking and partying.
Though the Carnival was on a decline in the past few years, yet the efforts of Goa Tourism Department and the state government have ensured that not only is the festival revived but also contributes to attracting tourists for the state. The Carnival just cannot be missed.
