A Carnival afternoon dedicated to the little ones in Sant'Omero
In the heart of the Abruzzo winter, when Carnival colors towns and squares with confetti and masks, the Municipality of Sant'Omero, in the province of Teramo, dedicates an entire afternoon to its youngest citizens. The Children's Carnival Party, organized by the Pro Loco Sant'Omero APS, is an event designed for local families, transforming the Sala Polifunzionale on Via Vittorio Emanuele II into a space for play, music, and cheer.
The party is built around a simple yet engaging program, tailored for children. Throughout the afternoon, there is a mix of entertainment, music, games, and fun activities, with a generous snack offered to all participants. Children are encouraged to come in costume, bringing to life the kaleidoscope of disguises that is the true symbol of Carnival.
The event is promoted by the Pro Loco Sant'Omero APS, an association active year-round in the cultural and social life of the town with events such as the Salt Cod Festival (Sagra del Baccalร ), Un Castello di Birra, and Christmas initiatives. The Children's Carnival Party is part of the Carnival calendar supported by the Pro Loco of Abruzzo, a circuit coordinated by UNPLI Abruzzo that connects dozens of events across the region every year, highlighting local Carnival traditions and the role of associations in keeping the identity of the villages alive.
Located in the Val Vibrata, at the northern tip of Abruzzo, Sant'Omero is a municipality in the province of Teramo nestled among the hills, not far from the Adriatic coast. The Sala Polifunzionale, an indoor municipal space, ensures a welcoming meeting point even on cold February days, making the party a moment of sociality and sharing for the entire community.
