Sitges Carnival and Accommodation 2008

Sitges Carnival

We know its early, but a lot of people don’t realise how early Carnival is next year. It takes place at the end of January and with many gay events happening the week before, its time you made sure you had your accommodation booked, so as to avoid any disappointment.

We have heard from some of the major booking agents that requests are beginning to come in for Carnival already. Here are some of our recommendations.

Good Bye Carnival

Goodbye Carnival

Sitges said goodbye to carnival in true style on Wednesday night.

The King’s funeral procession made its way through the town and onto the beach where a spectacular show took place.

Goodbye Carnival

The Egyptian theme was continued right to the very end as the obelisks were set on fire and the stage burned away. Then a spectacular fireworks display brought proceedings to a close.
