Chinese Lantern Festival “Coming of age” refers to the time when a person makes the transition from childhood into adulthood. In Japan, this has been a national holiday since 1948. Originally, it was celebrated on 15 January every year. However, in 2000 it was changed to the second Monday in January. On this day, everyone who has turned 20 in the last year is formally recognised as an adult. To celebrate, many attend ceremonies at local government offices. They may also go to a Shinto shrine or a Buddhist temple. When going out on this day, young men wear formal suits and ties and young ladies usually wear kimonos (和服). The day is often finished by a party where the young people celebrate their new lives as adults.

Usually, the Carnival occurs in late February or early March. By far the biggest Carnival is in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where more than two million people take part in the yearly festivities.
