Aquatic Carnival at NICETOILE

The excitement of Carnival arrives at NICETOILE! To echo the festivities that animate the city and captivate both locals and tourists, NICETOILE presents an unprecedented exhibition on the theme of the Aquatic Carnival, running until March 9, 2025.

AN IMMERSIVE AND ARTISTIC EXPERIENCE
This exhibition immerses visitors in the fascinating world of carnival through a fun and interactive journey. Sumptuous costumes, iconic giant heads, and original works create this exceptional display. Three renowned artists reveal their talents: the famous Patrick Moya, Romain (ArtMor), and Agnès Jennepin, who share remarkable and unique creations designed specifically for the Aquatic Carnival exhibition.

CREATIVE WORKSHOPS FOR LITTLE ONES AND… ADULTS TOO
To extend the experience, NICETOILE offers creative workshops that will delight children and also appeal to adults eager to embrace the festive spirit of Carnival.
“Draw me a Fish” from February 8 to 23 – Daily from 10 AM to 6 PM – Let your creativity flow by drawing a fish and watch it come to life through augmented reality! An immersive experience that also raises awareness about ocean cleanup in a virtual aquarium. This workshop, aimed at children, also charms parents who are happy to join in the fun of creating.
“Recycle me” from February 26 to March 9 – Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 2 PM to 6 PM – Transform recycled materials into a souvenir of the Nice Carnival. A fun and responsible activity where each creation contributes to an environmental cause. The funds collected will be donated to the Nice Plogging association, a committed collective that cleans Nice’s beaches year-round and raises awareness about the environmental urgency.

A FOCUS ON MARINE TURTLE CONSERVATION
In partnership with the Nice Museum of Natural History, the exhibition also highlights a crucial environmental issue: the protection of turtles in the Mediterranean Sea. A unique and educational way to raise public awareness of marine biodiversity.

THE BACKSTAGE OF CARNIVAL IN THE SPOTLIGHT
The visit concludes with an immersion into the backstage of Carnival, shedding light on the unsung craftsmen who contribute to the magic of this unmissable event. Caroline Roux, the head costume designer, will be honored, and well-kept Carnival secrets will be revealed.
