The main presidential candidates have a place on the Nice Carnival floats, which this year has the theme “The King of Animals”.
After a 2021 edition postponed due to the coronavirus epidemic, the Nice carnival is back this year in the streets of the city. The meeting will be held from February 11 to 27, with the theme “The King of Animals”.
Politics, as every year, will be in the spotlight. From some shots of the preparations taken in the hangars, we can see that the revelers honored the main presidential candidates: Marine Le Pen, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, already caricatured in previous editions, but also Valérie Pécresse , Eric Zemmour, Jean-Luc Mélenchon and Yannick Jadot will have their big heads.
Emmanuel Macron also has his big head
Emmanuel Macron, who has not yet confirmed his desire to represent himself or not, will also be honored during the parades. The caricature of the Head of State is familiar to spectators in Nice. In 2016, the big head bearing the image of Emmanuel Macron, then a presidential candidate, was on the floats with the other contenders for the Elysée. In 2019, during an edition called the “King of Cinema”, Emmanuel Macron appeared in Captain America, his Prime Minister at the time, Edouard Philippe, in Wolverine and Marlène Schiappa was Wonder Woman.
