Carnival in Avilés by Isabel Santos

The Carnival in Aviles is a tourist recommendation. Every year the number of people who participate in this festival increases as well as the shows and performances. There are a lot of parades but the most important one is on Tuesday. It starts in José Cueto Street and finishes at the Town Hall.

Another important event is Galiana descent. It’s a festival for young people who don’t mind wearing cold wet clothes because there are some firemen who get the people wet. Everybody wears green and yellow coats and the people who don’t participate should be careful because there are eggs and water flying all over Galiana Street. It’s an amazing festival in which the participants are mainly teenagers.
