One of the most spectacular and well-known abroad Gozo events remains the Nadur carnival, macabre experience with hooded revelers who make outlandish acts in the streets and carry around dead animals in a cage. The celebrations represent a cathartic release for the locals who endures the hardships of rural life, with the ultimate goal to shock the viewer.
