The biggest ones can be watched in Brunswick, Cologne and Mainz. Carnival time officially begins every year on November 11th at 11:11am and ends on Ash Wednesday. The highlight is Green Monday, the Monday before Ash Wednesday. It is a little different than in Rio or Trinidad & Tobago here. Carnival floats, which are shown during carnival parades, often have current political issues as a theme. People disguise as many different things; there are no rules for your disguise. I, for example, was a vampire last time. Carnival songs are sung and special dances like the ´Birdie Dance´ are danced. Carnival donuts are common carnival food here.
