Edition 2025 — Carvè Vej

In 2025, Montaldo Roero once again celebrated its Carvè Vej, the traditional Roero carnival. The festival featured its most beloved elements: the community lunch with polenta, masks and carnival songs in the square, and the ritual of the trial of Giaco Tross with the purifying bonfire that symbolically ends winter.

The 2025 edition of Carvè Vej confirmed the vitality of one of the most heartfelt traditions of Montaldo Roero, in the province of Cuneo. As is customary, the carnival day combined the conviviality of the polenta lunch with the festivities in the square, enlivened by masks, Roero songs, and the performance of the trial of Giaco Tross, the puppet set on fire in a rite of passage from winter to spring. An event organized by the community for the community, which every year renews the village's bond with its folk heritage.
