Carnival Verona (Festival of Gnocci) More Info
|
+ My Favorites
TBA Verona's carnival is nearly 500 years old, and it celebrates the end of a terrible famine of 1531. After an uprising by the city's poor at the unavailability of bread, the wealthy joined together to distribute grain and flour amongst the hungry. The Carnival's father, Tommaso Da Vico, commissioned an act that dictated that bread, wine, butter, flour and cheese would be provided to residents on the last day of the carnival for the rest of time. Address: Verona IT
Cimbri Festival (Festa dei Cimbri a Camposilvano) + My Favorites
TBA This festival, which takes place every year on the first Sunday in July, pays tribute to the customs and history of the Cimbri people, an ancient Germanic people whose ancestory now settles in certain parts of Lessinia. Features of the festival include a parade, traditional cuisine, and, abive all, tromboni shootings (interesting tribal weapons). Address: Frazione Camposilvano 1 Verona VR Tel: +39 (0) 45 991032
