San Giustino Carnival
A widespread carnival across the hamlets of the Upper Tevere Valley
About San Giustino Carnival
A Carnival for the Entire Territory
The San Giustino Carnival, a municipality in the Upper Tevere Valley in the province of Perugia, is not a single parade but a true widespread festival: events multiply across the different hamlets of the territory, from Lama to Dogana, from the center of San Giustino to Selci. Each village experiences its own moment, in a calendar that spans the Carnival days.
Masks, Schools, and Families
The main protagonists of the festival are the youngest ones: festive schools, parades in costume, and afternoons dedicated to families and children with the involvement of after-school programs and local community centers. The village streets fill with confetti, costumes, and entertainment, while multipurpose venues host parties with music and fun.
A Community Tradition
As highlighted by the municipal administration, the Carnival represents for San Giustino not only a deep-rooted tradition but also an opportunity to enhance the territory and strengthen community ties. The event is promoted by the Municipality of San Giustino in support of the events organized by numerous local associations, the true protagonists of the animation in the hamlets.
