Grezzana Carnival

The Grezzana Carnival

In the heart of Lessinia, at the gates of Verona, Grezzana celebrates its Carnival every winter with a grand parade of allegorical floats that attracts costumed groups and visitors from all over the province. The event is organized by Pro Loco Grezzana, the true soul of the Municipality's associative life, in collaboration with the municipal administration.

The Night Parade

In recent years, the Grezzana Carnival has opted for a unique and spectacular format: the night parade. The allegorical floats, illuminated and in motion, travel through the town's streets after sunset, creating a different atmosphere compared to traditional daytime processions. Accompanying the parade are the municipal band and the historical mask of Conte Allegro, the symbol of the Grezzana carnival.

A Festival of Tradition

Veronese masks, confetti, music, and the contagious joy of the costumed groups make the Grezzana Carnival an event for families and children. The festival is part of the tradition of carnivals in the Veronese foothills, where each town stages its own parade, and represents one of the most cherished community gatherings of the year for the Valpantena and Lessinia communities.

Grezzana and Lessinia

A municipality in the province of Verona overlooking the Valpantena valley, Grezzana is the gateway to Lessinia, the pre-Alpine plateau known for its landscapes, cheeses, and rural traditions. The Carnival is an opportunity to discover the town in a festive mood, amidst its squares and hamlets.
