Abstract

Abstract: This article describes and analyzes the influence that Basque immigration had on the Uruguayan carnival. The study presents the cultural features of the first carnival manifestations of Basque immigrants to the present day. Likewise, the research deconstructs some conceptions rooted in academic studies on the Uruguayan carnival, such as the nonexistence of European influence in the northern region of the country. Keywords: Basque immigration. Carnival. Intangible heritage. Cultural characteristics. Touristic touristic. Uruguay.
