Binche celebrates Shrove Tuesday with no fewer than 1,000 gilles who have been on their way since dawn. They are followed by drummers, harlequins or pierrots. A very important folklore for the inhabitants of this city and for those who have lived there. The Binche carnival is famous in Belgium but also beyond our borders, since it has been part of UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity for 20 years. 0:00 Introduction 1:10 Binche: early morning with the Gilles 3:22 Atmosphere in a family home kept for the carnival 5:40 Carnival seen by visitors 7:40 Atmosphere on the Grand-Place in Binche with Clémence Mathieu 10:30 Unesco recognition of the Binche carnival 12:25 Family celebration 15:32 Binche: the Red Cross is mobilized 17:32 Conclusion A subject broadcast on February 13, 2024 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ????
