About Pizza al Volo Fratres

Every July, the village of Corsanico in Massarosa (Lucca province) comes alive with the Pizza al Volo Fratres, a festival organized by the Fratres Blood Donors Group of Massarosa-Corsanico. For two long weekends, the food stalls serve freshly baked pizzas and traditional Versilia specialties in a festive village atmosphere that combines great food, music, and charity. The 2026 edition is scheduled for July 2–5 and July 9–12, with evening service starting at 7:00 PM.

Pizza al Volo Fratres in Corsanico

The Pizza al Volo Fratres is one of the most beloved summer festivals in the village of Corsanico, located in the municipality of Massarosa, in the province of Lucca. Born from the dedication of the Fratres Blood Donors Group of Massarosa-Corsanico, the event has become a staple of the Versilia calendar, attracting residents and visitors from nearby coastal towns every year.

When it takes place

The festival traditionally spans two weekends in July. For 2026, the evenings are scheduled from July 2 to 5 and July 9 to 12, with the food stalls opening at 7:00 PM. This two-weekend format allows guests to enjoy the festival at a leisurely pace, choosing the best evening to dine outdoors during the warm summer nights.

What to eat

As the name suggests, the star of the show is pizza, continuously baked by the volunteers of the Fratres group. Alongside pizza, the kitchen typically offers traditional Tuscan and Versilia dishes to be enjoyed at the outdoor tables. The full menu for the 2026 edition will be announced by the organizers closer to the event dates.

A community and charity event

Pizza al Volo is more than just a food festival: it is also an act of solidarity. The proceeds support the activities of the Fratres group, a blood donor association active within the municipality. Dining at the festival means contributing to a good cause in a simple and convivial way.

Massarosa, the "Municipality of Festivals"

Massarosa is known as one of the towns with the most festivals in Versilia: between spring and autumn, its villages host dozens of evenings dedicated to local cuisine and traditions. The Pizza al Volo Fratres is a key part of this busy summer calendar and represents a must-visit for those wanting to discover the genuine soul of the territory, nestled between the plains of Lake Massaciuccoli and the hills overlooking the sea.
