The Parade of the Crazy brings together thousands of locals and tourists who line the streets to enjoy a show full of energy and fun. Participants dress up in outlandish costumes and masks that range from the comical to the surreal, creating a festive and unique atmosphere. As the parade progresses, music resounds in the air, and dancers move to the rhythm of upbeat tunes, inviting everyone to join in the celebration.

This event is not only an opportunity to enjoy an impressive visual spectacle, but also represents a deep-rooted tradition in the community. The Parade of Fools is a celebration of local culture, where the creativity and ingenuity of the participants shine. It is also a perfect moment to strengthen the bonds between locals and visitors, creating a sense of community and shared joy.
