carnaval parade

I think the parade started last night. Would someone know where and what time the parade starts? Asked around today but no one seemed to know. Thanks in advance.

I didn't see any parade last night, but there was a big to-do going on in the city square.

Yes there is a competing thread here:
http://www.playa.info/playa-del-carm...l-playa-4.html

This one has a schedule and some other parade hints.

There is also some talk that Carnaval this year will be held early for some reason and so the published schedule may be wrong. However, so far, the schedule seems to be holding as they did have a big to-do (Carnaval King and Queen selection) scheduled for the city square last night and it did happen as planned.

I would like to thank the adults on this board for the information that was rather confusing on my search. Frank along with others had heard music and something happening Sunday night and thus some of us that are living here was just curious as to what was going on. That maybe the parade indeed had been changed or yea maybe doing a trial run. As Michael stated, information on events can change from hour to hour and rumors are always a problem.
