About Re Ambrognaga
The Re Ambrognaga Carnival
Among the various carnival parades that liven up Montichiari, in the Province of Brescia, the Re Ambrognaga Carnival is the one that ideally closes the Montichiari Carnival season. The mask of Re Ambrognaga gives its name to a popular festival that brings colours, music, and lots of joy to the streets on a Sunday in early spring.
The Parade
The gathering and start take place from the Ex Marzotto car park, from where the procession of masked groups sets off to cross the town's streets. It is a parade with a village feel, where local associations and groups, who prepare costumes and choreography in the preceding months, are the protagonists.
A Festival for Families
Like all carnival events in Montichiari, Re Ambrognaga is also designed primarily for families: an afternoon of outdoor celebration, with music and masks, that brings the Montichiari community together. In case of bad weather, the event is postponed to the reserve date, confirming how much the tradition is felt by organisers and participants.
