Edition 2025 — Sant'Eraclio Carnival

In 2025 too, the Sant'Eraclio Carnival enlivened the hamlet of Foligno with its impressive papier-mâché allegorical floats, hundreds of masks, and choreographies from dance schools. Three Sundays of parades and the Carnival Tavern every evening renewed one of Umbria's oldest and most beloved carnival traditions.

The 2025 edition of the Sant'Eraclio Carnival confirmed the strong bond of the Foligno hamlet with this historic event. On the Sundays of Carnival, the papier-mâché allegorical floats built by the village workshops paraded through the streets of Sant'Eraclio, accompanied by hundreds of masks and choreographies from masked groups and dance schools.

As tradition dictates, the Carnival Tavern was open every evening with local culinary specialties, in a festive atmosphere that involved the entire community. A tradition that, year after year, keeps the papier-mâché craftsmanship and the popular spirit of Carnival alive in Foligno.
