Each year, the Rhenish Carnival in Düsseldorf is one of the Rhineland's and Germany's biggest parties. Here I am walking you around the city center of Düsseldorf in February 2023. Beginning a week before Ash Wednesday, the revelry is 7 days of non-stop, costumed celebration. Carnival celebrations happen all across Germany every year but none with more passion and humour than the Rhenish Carnival in Düsseldorf. Filled with parades, parties and outrageous costumes, it’s time for some tongue-in-cheek gags and witty satirical takes on the political issues of the past year, from both at home and abroad. The Düsseldorfer Karneval is the cities variant of the “fifth season“ known as carnival. It begins on 11 November each year with the symbolic awakening of the Hoppeditz and ends on Ash Wednesday of the following year (22. February 2023 this time) with his burial. The period of carnival is called the Carnival session and marks a high point in the social life of the state capital. Together with the events in Cologne and Mainz, the carnival procession is one of the largest in Germany. Its annual television broadcast made it known nationwide. Fully shot in 4K 60FPS with high definition binaural sound, I hope you will enjoy this walking tour in Düsseldorf Germany! Recorded in February 2023 and the temperature was around 11 Degrees Celsius. #Carnival #Germany #Helau #Düsseldorf
