- Carnival takes place every year the weekend before Mardi Gras. The party begins on Friday evening and ends on Mardi Gras day (dates vary from one year to the next depending on the Catholic calendar which places Mardi Gras 40 days before Easter), i.e. 5 days of entertainment at the heart of winter. It is part of the heritage of Granville, because it is linked to the departure of sailors towards the banks of Newfoundland (they left on Mardi Gras day). Even if the departure of fishermen towards the banks of Newfoundland is no longer relevant today...
