It’s that colorful, dancing, jolly time of the year again – CARNAVAL TIME! This year, Casa de Campo Living’s CARNAVAL EN CASA will take place on Saturday the 26th of February and will feature a Costumed Golf Cart Parade!

The CARNVAL EN CASA will begin with a COSTUMED Golf Cart Parade, which will wind its way through Casa de Campo before arriving at it’s final destination, from where the parade will continue on foot and end in a CARNAVAL street party!!!

To make this event a REAL SUCCESS and LOTS OF FUN we need our Casa de Campo community to take part!!

Comparsas de Carnaval!
A Comparsa de Carnaval is a group of people who take part in the parade together – their costumes are all in the same theme and they often have a choreographed dance/walk or even performance.
Although individuals and individual golf carts are more than welcome to take part, we would like to encourage friends and families to join together and organise comparsas for the golf cart parade and the following Carnaval parade!

PRIZES!!!
Last year the best Comparsa de Carnaval won a boat trip to Palmilla! This year we are organising GREAT prizes for the best costumed golf carts, the best comparsas and the best costumes – so start preparing your costumes NOW!!!!

Any further details; time, route etc, are still to be determined – but here is your advance notice so you can start planning an amazing costume for your golf cart and for yourselves.

NOTE: We are still pending all the necessary approvals and permissions, which will make this possible, so at the moment we are only 99% sure that this event will happen!
