People, civilians and noblemen alike, celebrated the festival playing games and competitions in the fair and involving in various activities such as gambling, brothels etc.
The''' Constantine District''' was one of the four major districts of [[Constantinople]] during the [[Renaissance]].

Amid the housing stood potent reminders of the city's opulent past, such as the [[Valens Aqueduct]]. The majority of the Byzantine guards that patrolled the streets of Constantinople thrived here in the Constantine district.
==History==
In 1486, the [[Assassins|Assassin]] [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] obtained a mask and had his Plain Cape embroidered during this event, in order to remain anonymous. It was during this event that Ezio retrieved the [[Golden Mask]] to gain entrance into [[Marco Barbarigo]]'s personal party, in order to assassinate him.

[[File:Carnevale!.jpg|thumb|left|A typical Carnevale costume.]]During the Carnevale, by wearing a Carnevale mask and cape given to him by [[Leonardo da Vinci]], Ezio was able to avoid [[Notoriety|suspicion]] from the [[guards]].
After participating in and winning the Carnevale's games, Ezio earned his prize, the Golden Mask. However, [[Silvio Barbarigo]] secretly bribed the Carnevale's Master of Ceremonies to give the Golden Mask to [[Dante Moro]] instead. Ezio then pickpocketed the Golden Mask from Dante and wore it, replacing his plain mask and granting himself access to Marco Barbarigo's party.
