Carnival programme - all you wanted to know and more

Carnival is chaos. That you knew but we thought you might need reminding. Below is the official events programme but you can expect other things to go on 'privately' (not on the official programme, silly!) and possibly 'publicly' (we should hope not!). In any case, and as we have said many times before, you can get a much more thorough grounding in what CARNAVAL is in Jimena, and most of the province of Cádiz and Southern Spain, by clicking here to go to TioJimeno, who is a stalwart carnavalero together with several of his team. Just type in the word 'carnaval' and you'll get everything and more about it. We have set up a link for this item on the sidebar. Programme:>>>
