Carnevale is Carnival in Italy. February in Italy means that just about every city on the Peninsula is invaded with masks, confetti, colors and lights that make for a very exciting and unique atmosphere: it’s Carnival! It is a party with ancient roots, and today has become a folkloristic rite in which traditions and fun work together to bring enormous life to this unique celebration.
Of course the protagonist of Carnival is the costume or disguise, the mask that allows those who don it to transform themselves into whoever they wish to be – at least for a few days. The origins of Carnival date back to the Roman Saturnalia festival that rang in the New Year (Julian calendar) – similarly to the Lupercalia and Dionysian feasts. The actual term "carnevale" however derives from the Latin "carnem levare" for “take away the meat”. Carnival, according to the Roman Catholic Liturgical Calendar, is set for between Epiphany (January 6th) and the start of Lent.
