Malaga Carnival: Saying "Until 2026" with the Boquerón

If there's one thing that characterizes the Malagueños during carnival, it's that they always keep a positive attitude despite bad weather. The weather conditions disrupted much of the schedule for the carnival's closing day, but the party enthusiasts didn't mind: the traditional funeral parade was canceled, yet many were able to go to La Malagueta beach a few hours earlier than usual due to the rain forecast, to bid farewell (or rather, "see you next year") to that Don Carnal who makes us see life with humor, sarcasm, and without prejudice.

Thus, even though there was no parade, among flames and ashes, between verses and lots of humor, the Málaga Carnival 2025 made history. We will have to wait until next year for the god Momo and the lords and ladies of the verses, the backdrops, and everything else to bring us another warm winter.
