I'm talking of the season when you've got to chase the evil spirits away and allow for life to be reborn and spring to arrive. And what a better way than an ancient scary carnival? So I give you the Kukeri tradition, dating back to Thracian times and still revered far and wide across these very Balkans:

Kukeri – An old and scary Bulgarian tradition

They're everywhere. The events keep popping up every week. They're colourful, scary, funny, weird, and very, very noisy.
