Lou Queernaval 2022

 

 

Cancellations and Covid19. Both have been going hand in hand with life as we all know it for the past couple of years.

Finally, after the past two years of cancellations due to Covid19 and the pandemic, perhaps not quite at its usual full tilt, but still happening. Queernaval will be making its LGBTQ presence known at this year’s carnival on opening night.

We are pleased to announce the participation of a delegation of Queernaval at the opening ceremony of Carnival 2022 on Friday, February 11 at 6:30 pm on the Place Masséna.

A small but strong contingent of entertainers will be on hand: gogo dancers, drag queens, members of LGBT associations in costume ... who will parade among King, Queen, and their entourage, flowered floats, flag bearers, musical troops, dancers, and visitors.

Celebrating diversity and tolerance among everyone, you will see an array of sequins and rhinestones attached to some of the most amazing costumes along with rainbow flags, a feeling of extravagance, and a surge of happiness and love for all.

 

Lasting one hour, this free ceremony is the official kick-off of the Carnival of Nice with an outstanding sound and light show.
