Every year the Carnival in Nice has a certain theme. For example, in 2017, it is dedicated to the King of Energy.
During the carnival, the streets of Nice are filled with tourists, artists, and confetti.

Because of security measures, the guests of the festival are forbidden to blow up firecrackers and bring items that resemble weapons.
In 2017, the Promenade des Anglais, where the attack occurred last summer, was empty. In spite of the tradition, the march decided to bypass this place.
