The Carnivals of Mardi Gras in France

In 1875, Louisiana declared Mardi Gras a legal state holiday. [5] War, economic, political, and weather conditions sometimes led to cancellation of some or all major parades, especially during the American Civil War, World War I and World War II, but the city has always celebrated Carnival. [5]

The earliest reference to Mardi Gras "Carnival" appears in a 1781 report to the Spanish colonial governing body. That year, the Perseverance Benevolent & Mutual Aid Association was the first of hundreds of clubs and carnival organizations formed in New Orleans. Along the way, Shrove Tuesday emerged as the last day of Shrovetide, the week preceding the start of Lent. The word Shrovetide is the English equivalent of Carnival, which comes from the Latin words carnem levare, meaning “to take away the flesh.” “To shrive” means to hear confessions, according to Catholic theologian Father William P. Saunders. Redmon, David (July 8, 2014). Beads, Bodies, and Trash: Public Sex, Global Labor, and the Disposability of Mardi Gras. London: Routledge.

With an average attendance of 40,000 people each year, Dunkirk Mardi Gras is a colourful and exciting affair. It’s roots are not only linked to the Christian festival either. It also has links to the 1600’s when local fisherman would head off for long trips to the edge of Iceland to catch fish for the community. Prior to their heading off, boat owners would give the fisherman a ‘foye’, or advance, on their salary. This would allow them the chance to feast with their family one last time before their departure.The procession of floats, masquerades, various eccentricities and drunkenness were part of the rites of purification of the last traces of winter before the spring renewal.
