When is Carnival Tuesday?

Carnival Tuesday is the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday (47 days before Easter). If today is after this year’s date, the countdown targets the next occurrence at midnight in your local timezone.

How people mark Carnival Tuesday

Also known as Mardi Gras or Fat Tuesday — the last big feast and parade day before Lent in many Christian and Carnival cultures.

Use the clock for planning

Parade routes and hotels sell out weeks ahead. Use Carnival Monday for the day before and Maundy Thursday when Holy Week planning starts.
