'Carnival' Events

Is Carnival the same time every year?

When will carnival be held for 2009?

How does one find the activities? Is there a guide published to tell where the activities are taking place?

What exactly is carnival?

I want to thank you for all the help you are giving me.

I'm finding conflicting information. Carnival around the world appears to occur with a relationship to the dates for Lent (which means the dates are different every year). But the web page "Discover Uruguay" claims carnival is always the 1st week in February every year.

I'd like to see Murga, and again conflicting information. Some sources say it is before Carnival, and some sources say it is during Carnival.

I am a big fan of cultural shows and festivities where people from different countries shows their heritage and rich tradition. You can see these through festivals and other related occasions, and that is why me and my friends goes on a traveling spree to experience these traditions and later blogging about it. Hope you can give us the dates onto when and where will these festivities be celebrated? Thanks.
