Buenos Aires Carnival Tips:

• Wearing easily stained garments such as silk to carnival is NOT recommended, but don’t worry about street clothes as the ‘carnival snow’ generally dissolves quickly.

• Be careful with expensive cameras as carnival visitors are inevitably ‘foamed’ by mischievous youth.
