The classic carnival actually ends after Ash Wednesday in mid-February.
However, a well-known move is yet to take place on the border with Baden-Württemberg.
Stuttgart - The Swabian-Alemannic Fasnet is a tradition that is known far beyond the borders of Baden-Württemberg.
It traditionally begins with Schmotzigen Dunnschtig (Dirty Thursday) and ends with Ash Wednesday in mid-February.
In a community on the border with Baden-Württemberg, Fasnet or Mardi Gras is celebrated every year only three weeks before Easter, which is why it is considered the “last carnival in the world”.
In addition, a large traditional parade takes place there every three years, including in 2024.
