Mugello Carnival

Publication Date  Publication Date: Wednesday, January 17, 2024
Put on your fancy dress and make-up on and get down to the main square to join in the magic of the Mugello Carnival! The 311th season is about to begin, bringing some of the most entertaining days of the year. The first date is 21st January 2024 in Piazza Dante, Borgo San Lorenzo, and entrance is absolutely free! From 11.00 am every Sunday, floats, fun trains and boats will join the parade, a sight for young and old to enjoy, and every week there will be something different to see.  Adding a delicious new twist this year is the Festival of the TORTELLO and FICATTOLA. Every Sunday of Carnival you will find a dining area offering typical local specialities such as tortelli (filled pasta), ficattole (a type of deep-fried dough) and barbecued meat. Sunday lunch in Borgo San Lorenzo will be mouth-watering...the perfect excuse for a good meal with friends and members of the comunity before the parade begins.
