venice carnival

I'm headed to Carnival this year.  ill be there later this week.
I'm looking for locations the Costumes will be....

I know they meetup early morning at St Marks square
then they "go there own way".
But I've heard there is also an unwritten schedule of where they meet up.

Like - On Thursday's they meet up at the retirement home at around X o'clock.

Does anyone know where I can find the schedule?

Things I do know:
* Morning at the square
* evenings at Giorgio Maggiore
* Costumes roam the city throughout the day
* Private photoshoots in hotels/residents/cool places

What I don't know:
* the costumes meet up at certain places on certain day's at certain times.

People in costumes, even very fancy ones, will be absolutely everywhere, by the hundreds if not thousands, especially in the most important tourist spots (like Piazza San Marco). You’ll be amazed by the crowds, especially on weekends.

For all events the official website is below.

The official program does not provide the details I'm looking for.

Once the morning - St Marks square "ends" the costumes meet up later in the day at designated places per day. and I'm looking for that information --- the program does not mention these places or times or days.
