Soon it’s Lund Carnival
time again!
A student carnival
(Lundakarnevalen) takes place every fourth year and is arranged by about 5 000
students from Lund called “karnevalister”. The carnival is an old tradition in
Lund, dating back to 1849, and each carnival has a different theme.

That is how the
Carnival parade looked like about 100 years ago (the photo belongs to University library, public domain)
During Lundakarnevalen
2014 “Futuristic carnival” more than 200 000 persons watched the Carnival
parade passing through the Lund city centre.
Here you can watch
an official after-movie from the previous Carnival – 2014.
The theme for
Carnival – 2018 is Imagination.
And some more photos from the Carnival-2014
