Las Llamadas Parade, Carnaval 2009

Thank author of this post/commentIf you're lucky enough to find yourself in Montevideo at this time of year you really must check out some of the carnaval events!

By far the most exciting one (in my humble opinion) is "El Desfile de las Llamadas" (The Parade of The Calls). This is where all the Candombe Comparsas (community drumming groups) dress in the traditional colonial costumes and march through the streets with colorful dancers, acrobats and much more!

Mardi Gras Carnival and Parade

Come experience the carnival in Montevideo with the famous celebrated Candombe rhythmic music. Each year, the celebration occurs during the first week of February. Carnival Week is considered the annual national festival of the nation. The festival is famous for the Las Murgas, small theatrical productions; each neighborhood has it's own group.

Candombe is the traditional drumming of the Afro-Uruguayan people living in the city of Montevideo, where this music was born. Its heavy African influence is unmistakable, and is one of the few rhythms in South America that reflects its African roots and is embraced by the country for its cultural importance. Born in the Barrios in the city of Montevideo, Candombe is the heart beat of Carnival in Uruguay.

For the nonspellers: Urugauy and Monte Video is Montevideo (monte-vid-day-o), real estate agents are "Inmobiliaria", and of course Uruguay is not spelled Uraguay. 3866295971
