Ibiza Mardi Gras: San Antonio

The towns of Ibiza are getting ready for the big Mardi Gras celebrations

The towns of Ibiza are getting ready for the big Mardi Gras celebrations known locally as 'Carnaval.' Here we mark the start of Lent with lots of feasting (the word carnaval is derived from the Latin meaning farewell to meat) parades, processions and fancy dress competitions.

San Antonio has just released its Carnaval 2009 programme which has a few quirky departures from tradition.
