Bachelors March in Carnival Parade

Back to Search Results

A parade of bachelors at Carnival visit neighbors during Carnival in the small village of Dreznica, Slovenia (population 65). The men dress in costume and rap on every door in town. Neighbors invite them in to eat and drink in celebration. The people of old Europe thought that evil caused the dark and cold winter. When spring arrived, they came out to rejoice that light wins over darkness, and to begin another year.
