Hi everyone,
I am sure someone will know what the English for this "Carnaval" term is. This is a text from Peru referring to Carnaval/Mardi Gras:
Actualmente, esta fiesta tiene su mayor expresión en Cajamarca, cuya ciudad es reconocida oficialmente como “Capital del Carnival peruano” y su pueblo goza de día feriado para disfrutar del Gran Corso.
Again, I understand the sentence, I just need a proper term for "Gran Corso" in English.
Thanks!
Laura

Selected
the big parade - the big Carnival Parade
possibly also "the pageant" but for Mardi Gras it is usually a Carnival Parade

: Big Parade. At the beginning I thought of a misspelling of "Gran Corzo", i.e. Napoleon (with a "z") :)

Great Corso
Encuentro varios "hits" para Great Corso refiriéndose a algún tipo de carnaval, pero en Europa. Tal vez lo han copiado o es algo similar en Cajamarca. Saludos.
