From February 15 to 29, on the occasion of its Carnival, Nice will become the world capital of fashion.
“Why the theme of Fashion? Because fashion is part of our daily lives and interests all generations!” – with this question-and-answer, Christian Estrosi officially presented the program of this globally resonant event.
On Place Masséna, 17 floats will pay tribute to fashion in all its forms, along with 17 troupes from around the world and 16 flower battle floats.
The most important winter event will attract more than 200,000 spectators, with an estimated economic impact of 30 million euros for an operating budget of 6 million.
