About Campodimele Carnival

Every year, the Campodimele Carnival brings the small village in the Aurunci Mountains, in the province of Latina, to life with a morning of masks, music, and joy in Piazza Municipio. Organized by the Pro Loco in partnership with the local Municipality, this free event is designed especially for children and families, featuring games, entertainment, shows, and plenty of surprises. It is a moment of shared joy in the heart of one of Italy's most beautiful and longest-living villages.

Carnival in the heart of the Aurunci Mountains

The Campodimele Carnival is the most colorful festival of the year for this small village perched at an altitude of over 600 meters, within the Aurunci Mountains Natural Park in the province of Latina. Every year, between late February and early March, Piazza Municipio transforms into a lively stage for masks, music, and merriment, where the community gathers to enjoy a morning of pure fun together.

A festival for children and families

Organized by the Pro Loco of Campodimele in collaboration with the Municipality, the Carnival is specifically designed for the little ones. The program includes games, entertainment, shows, and many surprises, with everyone encouraged to wear a costume to add even more color to the square. There is no shortage of music and the joyful atmosphere that makes the festival a highly anticipated event for both young and old.

One of Italy's most beautiful and longest-living villages

Campodimele is no ordinary town: surrounded by ancient medieval polygonal walls, it has joined the club of the Most Beautiful Villages in Italy and has been awarded the Orange Flag by the Italian Touring Club. It is known worldwide as one of the longest-living villages, thanks to its pure air, pristine nature, and a simple, genuine lifestyle. The Carnival brings a breath of lightheartedness to this evocative setting, strengthening the sense of belonging and the festive spirit among citizens and visitors alike.

In Lazio, a stone's throw from the Gulf

Located in southern Lazio, between the Aurunci Mountains and not far from the Gulf of Gaeta, Campodimele is the ideal destination for those who want to discover an authentic Italy far from the major tourist flows. Experiencing the Carnival in this context means combining the fun of the festival with the beauty of a village rich in history, folk traditions, and breathtaking landscapes. A perfect trip for families looking for a day of joy and conviviality.
