Carnival typically lasts for several days, culminating in the days leading up to Ash Wednesday, which marks the beginning of Lent in the Christian calendar. In many places, Carnival festivities can start as early as January and culminate in a grand celebration during the final days before Ash Wednesday, commonly referred to as "Mardi Gras." The most intense celebrations often occur in the final weekend, lasting from Friday to Tuesday. Thus, the main event generally lasts about four to five days.
