In the Tašmajdan park, on the Zemun quay, the plateau near the Kalenić market and on the promenade near Wizelj in Borča, there will be eighth Great Easter Carnival.
As last year, in cooperation with three city municipalities – Palilula, Zemun and Vračar, and organized by the “Kultur shock” association, the Great Easter Carnival will be held on the upcoming weekend, April 27 and 28, 2024, and the entrance for all visitors will be free.
A two-day festival with rich content will be organized at all four locations, and visitors will have the opportunity to enjoy a full-day program intended for the whole family. The working hours of the festival are from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
The big Easter carnival will mark this year as well numerous entertainment programs which will take place on the central festival stages where music and dance performances, children’s shows and various performances will alternate.
Majorettes, street entertainers, mascots of favorite children’s heroes will create a carnival atmosphere throughout the festival area, and various all-day creative workshops will be organized.
The event aims to promote family values and encourage the development of social responsibility among the youngest. Therefore, in cooperation with all primary schools from the territory of the Palilula city municipality, as well as the schools of the Vračar city municipality, a large socially responsible campaign was launched this year, in which children of all lower grades are involved.
The little ones will compete in the framework this year as well competitive disciplines “choice for the most beautiful painted egg” and “choice for the most beautifully decorated Easter basket”. Through this action, elementary students, now traditionally, help socially disadvantaged students from the school desk who need help.
The works of the founders who are the most creative will be exhibited at the carnival itself, where visitors will have the opportunity to become the owners of a small work of art by making a donation, according to their capabilities, and thus donate the entire action. The collected money will go for humanitarian purposes to the fund to which the winner will allocate the funds.
In the spirit of the holiday, this year the carnival will also host an Easter egg-beating competition for which everyone interested can register on the spot, as well as a baby crawling competition. The fastest and most resourceful will win valuable prizes. (Beoinfo)
