It is held on the last Tuesday of Carnival before the awards ceremony.

Cartagena pays homage to carnival excellence in the Don Carnal Parade . This special parade brings together in a single route the groups, troupes, satirical songs, and characters that have won awards in the various categories of our competitions.

Under the watchful eye of King Carnival, the winners will once again fill the city center streets with brilliance , sharing the joy of their trophies and the artistic excellence that places our Carnival at the very top with the public. A must-see parade to experience the award-winning essence of our festivities.
