The most important characteristics of this carnival are the murgas, chirigotas, estudiantinas (strolling bands of students) and troupes, engaged in turning upside down, with their music and the satirical lyrics, all current affairs. This is the spirit of this festivity, laughing about everything, sheathed into a costume. Open to the visitor, Almadén organizes contests and parades for adults and children, during eight days.
