Carnaval is celebrated across Panama during the four days before Ash Wednesday, including in Anton and the beach districts. Days feature culecos (water trucks soaking crowds), music, comparsas and queen coronations, while nights bring parades of decorated floats and fireworks. Many Coronado-area residents join local celebrations or travel to the larger carnavales in the interior. Dates shift each year. When: Four days before Ash Wednesday — Annual event.
