Come and see Dinant's great carnival procession with its amazing costumes and giant puppets.

Fancy dress is highly recommended. You can also join the wheelbarrow decorating competition.

Meet the giants

 

  • Guinguet, Cafonnette:  back in 1815, the three brothers Debri, nicknamed "the Guinguets" succeeded to stop 2,000 Cossacks at the Bayard pass and saved Dinant in the process.
  •  
  • Cheval Bayard: the legend says this horse could cross the Meuse in a single bound... which he did Dinant, bouncing from a rock which was split by the blow of his hoof.
