This amazing artistic display has been around for over thirty years. 

It (is) celebrated in summer months, on Saturdays (from January,14th to February 26, in the city of Gualeguaychú, in the province of Entre Rios, in Argentina. 

This (festival) takes part in the Corsodromo (a place specially designed for this event), (in) those days. It has an audience of about 40,000 people each night. People can enjoy the brightness, the joy, the thrill and the rhythm of the comparsas (social club's carnival dance group). The Carnival has five comparsas, which represents a club or a social centre. There (These) are called Mari–Mari, Papelitos, Ara-Yeví, Kamar and O’Bahia. This (These) comparsas will compete for the first prize as they display the quality of their costumes, the synchrony of their choreography and the great show made up by their floats which, in addition to the themes chosen by the directors, make attendants vibrate and dance as they try to leave a legacy to make the world a better place. 

In the comparsas' parade, people can joy and feels the energy of the festival. Batucadas and multicolor feathers show to the admirers the charm of the people in Gualeguaychu. The atmosphere is definitely very exciting and happiness. Probably, everybody is wondered of all the beauties of the carnival. 

I didn’t go (haven't gone) to this festival yet. Definitely, I would like to go and see all the differents comparsas and batucadas in the parade. 

I like Gualeguaychú Carnival because it seems to be a very colorful and funny festival. The dance and the music are amazing. The Gualeguaychu people and international tourists maybe feel happy once a year, in those summer days.
