After a sombre Goa Carnival due to the pandemic, the high spirits of Goa will shoot up again during the four-day Goa Carnival celebrations, from 18 to 21 February. Introduced by the Portuguese settlers who ruled Goa for about 500 years and celebrated originally by the Catholics, this carnival is one-of-its-kind in India and has dissolved all communal barriers. The carnival will be celebrated in 4 major places: Panjim (18 Feb), Margao (19 Feb), Mapusa (20 Feb) and Vasco (21 Feb).
