Carnival

Catholic AnswerIn the Old Calendar (before the Second Vatican Council) this Sunday was known as Quinquagesima (Latin for the fiftieth day [before Easter]), it was the third Sunday of the pre-Lent season known as Septuagesima. In the new Calendar it is just the last Sunday of Ordinary Time before Lent, its number changes depending on how many weeks there are between the Christmas season and Lent.
