Altavilla Milicia Carnival

The Altavilla Milicia Carnival

The Altavilla Carnival is one of the most cherished traditions in Altavilla Milicia, a coastal town in the Province of Palermo overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea in Sicily. During the carnival season, the town is filled with confetti, costumes, and music, creating a community celebration that brings together families, from the youngest children to adults.

A festival for all ages

The program is designed to cater to every age group. Children can enjoy costume parties at the Municipal Playground, featuring games, entertainment, and plenty of outdoor fun. For adults, there are dance evenings at the Plesso Zucchetto, with group dancing and music lasting late into the night. A highlight of the event is the classic best costume contest, where creative outfits and disguises compete for the top prize.

Organizers

The event is the result of a collaboration between the ASD Blasius Club and the Pro Loco Altavilla Milicia APS, two local associations that manage the organization of the various evenings and activities for children each year. Their dedication keeps alive a tradition that stands as one of the most anticipated events of the winter in Altavilla.

Flavors and tradition

Between the various events, visitors can enjoy tastings of local products, which pair the fun of the festival with the delicious flavors of Sicilian cuisine.
