The King Arrives

The King of Carnival Arrives. This years theme is based around all things Egyptian. The entire event can be seen in our interactive photo gallery here.

Master of Ceremonies, Sitges Carnival

The master of ceremonies directed all of the guys and girls in costume to some of the campest music we've heard! Think the Bangles, Bonnie Tyler and Cher!

Costumes for Carnival

Some people have been planning their costumes since last years carnival ended.

Sitges Snow

The “Sitges Snow” can not be avoided… it gets everywhere. Just find someone nice to, ahem, brush it off you!

Dancing in Sitges Carnival

Dancing the little socks off, the entire event had over 200 people on Stage over a 1 hour period. The parade itself took over 2 hours to make its way through town.

Rio Costumes Carnival

No, you're not in Rio, you're in Cap De La Vila, the square in the centre of town.

Walk like an Egyptian

Walk like an Egyptian. Each costume took over 3 weeks to make and is cared for by a dedicated group of individuals who look after everything from design to mending!

Stage, La Fragata

The parade culminated in a spectacular show in La Fragata with the Santa Tecla church as an impressive backdrop.

proclamation

The Master of Ceremonies read the proclamation and the festivities soon began as the king made his way through the town on a serpant.
