Nice Carnival 2026

Why "Long Live the Queen" Will Make History
After decades of celebrating Kings, Nice is staging a historic revolution for its 153rd edition. From February 11th to March 1st, 2026, the Carnival finally honors "The Queen".
This is a pivotal year for the French Riviera's flagship event, and the excitement can already be felt on Place Masséna.
A Royal Address on the Doorstep of the Show
Staying at Hotel Aston La Scala during the Carnival means treating yourself to the luxury of absolute proximity. Located just 100 meters from the festivities' entrance, our establishment becomes your headquarters.
Experience the excitement of Place Masséna without the logistical hassles:
- Forget long commutes and traffic.
- Enjoy your room until the very last moment: you are only a two-minute walk from your grandstand seat.
A Touch of Nobility at the Moon Bar
To honor the "Long Live the Queen" theme, our Head Bartender has created an ephemeral cocktail menu. After the Illuminated Parade (Corso Illuminé), head up to the 7th floor.
The view over the rooftops of Nice and the illuminated Ferris Wheel prolongs the magic, with added tranquility.
