Carnaval etiquette – outdoor events
- Sit down – don’t block the view.
- Give priority to shorter people, children, and those with limited mobility.
- Respect the performance space designated by the artists.
- React enthusiastically! If you enjoyed the performance, show your appreciation with applause, a kind word, or a donation – for most street performers, the hat is their only source of income.
- Have fun – remember that as a spectator, you are part of the performance and sometimes even become one of its actors. Laugh freely at others, but
