What the day is for
The pre-Lenten festival: parades, costume and street parties, at its largest in Brazil and the Caribbean.
Do shops and banks close?
Offices and banks close or run half days; bars, food stalls and retail in party districts thrive.
Getting around
Major route closures and extended night services in host cities.
