About Carnevàl Sot l'Agner

The Carnevàl Sot l'Agner is the carnival of Voltago Agordino, in the province of Belluno, in the shadow of Mount Agner, the giant of the Dolomites. In the scenic Agordina Basin, a UNESCO World Heritage site, the parade of masks moves from Frassenè to Voltago and parades through the streets of the village, concluding with the costume contest: a festival that blends carnival tradition and the Dolomite landscape.

Carnival at the foot of Mount Agner

The Carnevàl Sot l'Agner is the Carnival event of Voltago Agordino, a municipality in the province of Belluno nestled in the Agordina Basin, the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites. The name refers to Mount Agner, one of the most imposing peaks in the range, which provides a spectacular backdrop to the festival.

Parade from Frassenè to Voltago

The highlight is the parade of masks that starts from the hamlet of Frassenè and reaches Voltago, where the masked participants gather in the church square before parading through the village streets. The festival concludes with the costume contest, a moment of joy and creativity that involves the entire community.

A mountain festival

Organized by the Municipality of Voltago Agordino with local associations, the Carnevàl Sot l'Agner is one of the traditions that enliven the winter in the Agordino region, included in the broader calendar of the Carnival of the Dolomites. An authentic festival, where the carnival ritual blends with the extraordinary natural setting of the Belluno Dolomites.
