Carnival is traditional event in Rijeka and its surroundings and takes place
every year at the end of the winter. Since 1995 Rijeka is a member of the
Federation of European Carnival Cities (FECC).The carnival parade which is
held in the city centre gathers 150 masked groups from 15 countries and more
than 100.000 spectators every year. Carnival festivities take place in
Rijeka since the Middle Ages. The carnival customs of Rijeka are a
particular blend of European middle class carnivals, foremost Venetian and
Austrian carnivals, and elements of old Slavic folklore and mythology. As
legend has it, the boisterous merry-making of the masks will drive away the
forces of evil, while evoking the arrival of spring and celebrating the
creation of new life
