The big carnival parade in Hanover traditionally starts on the Saturday before Shrove Monday. The Rose Monday parade and the Schull- und Veedelzöch can take place as usual in Cologne city center. In addition to Cologne's biggest carnival parades, all the carnival revelers take to the streets of the Veedeln. The Cologne Rose Monday parade is not only the most famous, but also the largest Carnival Parade in Germany with up to 1.5 million visitors. A highlight of the Rheinberg carnival is always the handing over of the keys with hundreds of party-loving fools.
Hanover is one of Lower Saxony's carnival strongholds. In the state capital, there is also a blue-blooded tradition of foolish goings-on: the Hanoverian electors celebrated carnival along Venetian lines as early as the 17th century.
