Feathers, rhinestones, sequins and colorful costumes are the order of the day, so you can visit the château, take part in creative workshops, have your face painted... And you'll be amazed by the stilt-walking and acrobatic juggling acts strolling through the château courtyard all afternoon. For this carnival day, children don't pay. For older children, admission to the château costs from €5 (reduced rate) to €7 (full rate). Happy Carnival to all at Château de Blandy-les-Tours!
