The annual Nice Carnival in February is one of the biggest and liveliest carnivals in the world! A whole host of events brings Nice to life for a fortnight. Nice Carnival is a mood booster with unforgettable events for spectators to enjoy. The theme of the 150th anniversary of the Carnival is the King of the World's Treasures. Just imagine the carnival floats and costumes this year has in store for us whilst we wait for February 11th to come. The Best Western Hôtel Lakmi Nice has its own surprises for you to celebrate the event and the entire team can't wait for you to come and soak up the carnival atmosphere in February.
The Nice Carnival has been held every year since 1873 and is the biggest event on the Côte d’Azur. The 150th anniversary parade gets the party started in 2023 with a colourful and musical show.
The King, Queen, big heads, carnival and floral floats, bands and dancers bring the parade to Place Masséna and Quai des États-Unis to put on a show.
The carnival plays host to other events and things to do in Nice, the carnival village and fireworks display to end proceedings. It's a big event for Nice and attendees who come from all over the world to experience the parade, music and costumes.
