Carnival de Barranquilla

English Below

Con el lema: “En Barranquilla se baila así”, se dio inicio a las celebraciones del Carnaval de Barranquilla, aunque éste será del 1 al 4 de marzo de este 2025, desde el 18 de enero comenzaron las celebraciones del precarnaval, teniendo como uno de los momentos preponderantes el concierto de Shakira, la embajadora del carnaval, el 21 de febrero. 

El Carnaval es una festividad de origen religioso y que es celebrada en diferentes partes del mundo, siendo los más importantes los siguientes: Carnaval de Río de Janeiro, Brasil; Carnaval de Barranquilla, Colombia; Carnaval de Venecia, Italia; Carnaval de Tenerife, España; Carnaval de Colonia, Alemania; Carnaval de Cádiz, España; Carnaval de Notting Hill, Reino Unido; Mardi Gras, Nueva Orleans. Sus dos mayores exponentes son el Carnaval de Río de Janeiro y el Carnaval de Barranquilla. 

Este año el Carnaval de Barranquilla será del 1 al 4 de marzo. No obstante, comienza con las celebraciones del precarnaval, que este año iniciaron la semana pasada con la Lectura de Bando, en la que el Alcalde del Puerto le entrega las llaves de la ciudad a la Reina del Carnaval, este año Tatiana Angulo, quien dará lectura al decreto, Bando con el que se da vía libre y se establece lo que está permitido y lo que está prohibido para los asistentes de la fiesta. 

Para este año el festejo de esta semana será las Coronaciones de las Reinas Populares y así una serie de eventos continuos. 

Con los desfiles de bailarines al son de ritmos latinos en los que converge el mestizaje que distingue a Colombia. Con brillantes colores, carrozas y vestuarios, la música hace de las suyas con el cuerpo de cada uno de los integrantes de las comparsas o grupos de baile. Los festejos llenarán de alegría las calles de Barranquilla. 

Como se ve en el programa, el programa es un despliegue de celebraciones, como es el Carnaval de los Niños. 

Y aunque el Carnaval, por sí mismo, este año va del sábado 1 de marzo terminando el martes 4 de marzo, un día antes del Miércoles de ceniza, el día en que se da inicio al periodo de cuaresma. La cuaresma es el periodo que guardamos los católicos para observar, ayunar y tener austeridad, de aquí que días antes el color y lo festivo sea el símbolo precedido.

With the motto: “In Barranquilla we dance like this”, the celebrations of the Barranquilla Carnival began, although this will be from March 1 to 4 of this 2025, since January 18 the pre-carnival celebrations began, having as one of the preponderant moments the concert of Shakira, the ambassador of the carnival, on February 21.

The Carnival is a holiday of religious origin and is celebrated in different parts of the world, the most important being the following: Carnival of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; Carnival of Barranquilla, Colombia; Carnival of Venice, Italy; Carnival of Tenerife, Spain; Carnival of Cologne, Germany; Carnival of Cadiz, Spain; Carnival of Notting Hill, United Kingdom; Mardi Gras, New Orleans. Its two greatest exponents are the Carnival of Rio de Janeiro and the Carnival of Barranquilla.

This year, the Barranquilla Carnival will be from March 1 to 4. However, it begins with the pre-carnival celebrations, which this year began last week with the Reading of the Decree, in which the Mayor of the Port hands the keys of the city to the Carnival Queen, this year Tatiana Angulo, who will read the decree, the Decree with which the go-ahead is given and what is allowed and what is prohibited for those attending the party is established.

For this year, the celebration this week will be the Coronations of the Popular Queens and thus a series of continuous events.

With the parades of dancers to the sound of Latin rhythms in which the fusion that distinguishes Colombia converges. With bright colors, floats and costumes, the music does its thing with the body of each one of the members of the comparsas or dance groups. The celebrations will fill the streets of Barranquilla with joy.

As you can see in the program, the program is a display of celebrations, such as the Children’s Carnival.

And although the Carnival itself, this year, runs from Saturday, March 1st to Tuesday, March 4th, one day before Ash Wednesday, the day that the period of Lent begins. Lent is the period that we Catholics observe to observe, fast and have austerity, hence the days before the color and festivity are the preceding symbol.
