After being cancelled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Grand Carnivale will be returning this season from July 17th to August 1st!
After reading the park's info. We have 6 countries this year (+1). The original 5, plus Spain (additional parade float for Spain?). They are having the same 6-9 Tasting card setup for this event as it was for the "Taste of the Season". The biggest change is that you can use the same tasting card over multiple visits during the Carnivale event.
Looks like the park has upped their game with the event food items. Each country will have 4-5 food items for sale. The menus seem to have a greater variety and are more "up-scale".
CORRECTION: Food tasting cards.
The SIX tasting card is good ONLY on the day of your visit. $5 discount if bought online.
The NINE season pass tasting card is good for MULTIPLE VISITS during Carnivale. Does not mention any online discount.
As somebody that's trying to eat a lot less meat and no red meat, the tasting card isn't for me, given what's on the menus. I've never been a parade person either, so really I'm not sure this event has anything for me anyway. I didn't go last time, but maybe I should have since perhaps this event pulls at least some of the crowd away from the rides? Is there more to this than a parade and food?
I don't recall a lot of wait for rides then either way then. That's more significant now so we can hope the parade and 8 PM closings will result in significant improvements at closing time. It can cause difficulties getting around though, since the parade starts down between Timbers and AZ. A small mob formed at the end around the tower.As somebody that's trying to eat a lot less meat and no red meat, the tasting card isn't for me, given what's on the menus.

Oh noes!
Their main dish for Germany is "Wiener Schnitzel".
