About Quarto d'Altino Carnival

Between February and March, Quarto d'Altino (Venice) celebrates Carnival with a mask parade, family entertainment, and the delicious Golden Fritters Competition, dedicated to traditional Venetian fritters. A cheerful and popular event that brings colours, costumes, and Carnival sweets to the heart of the town, on the edge of the northern Venetian lagoon, a land where Carnival tradition has deep roots.

The Altino Carnival

The Quarto d'Altino Carnival is the Carnival celebration of the Municipality of Quarto d'Altino, in the province of Venice. Between February and March, the town comes alive with a mask parade and entertainment for children and families.

The Golden Fritters Competition

A delicious and iconic moment is the Golden Fritters Competition, dedicated to fritoe (fritters), the symbolic sweet of Venetian Carnival. The competition awards the best fritters, in a celebration that combines gastronomic tradition and fun.

Venetian Tradition

A few kilometres from Venice, where Carnival is among the most famous in the world, Quarto d'Altino also preserves its own version of the celebration, more intimate and popular, deeply linked to the community. Masks, sweets, and cheerfulness make the Altino Carnival an eagerly awaited event in the winter calendar of the Venetian area.
