Carnival parade
The carnival parade brings color, southern European carnival spirit and the thrill of dance to the city’s streetscape. The parade is a playful competition where the best groups are awarded. The parade proceeds from Snellmaninpuisto to Kuopio Market Square, where the groups perform on the Savonia stage.
