Why see the Montevideo Carnival?

We'll meet at the entrance of Tablado Primero de Mayo, the venue for the Montevideo Carnival show. The Montevideo Carnival is one of the longest in duration worldwide, spanning about 40 consecutive nights, filling Uruguay's capital with vibrant life and color.

During the show, we will enjoy performances from 5 different categories of artistic groups: murgas (musical theater-like performances), comedians, parodists, revistas (dancers), and comparsas (street performers in dazzling costumes). These groups perform at tablados, which have been a central part of the carnival's cultural heritage since the early 20th century.

We will have the chance to experience between 3 and 6 different shows, in Spanish, outside the more tourist areas, providing an authentic glimpse into local carnival culture.

The event will last between 3-5 hours.
