Parades of floats in the Veronese Carnival tradition
About Vigasio Carnival
Carnival in the Bassa Veronese
The Vigasio Carnival is part of the rich and centuries-old tradition of the Veronese Carnival, one of the most deeply rooted in the Veneto region, featuring allegorical floats, traditional masks, bands, and majorettes that liven up the towns of the Bassa Veronese between January and March. Vigasio, in the province of Verona, participates in this calendar with its own events of a strong popular character.
Isola Alta and the Town Centre
The Vigasio Carnival is divided into several moments. In the hamlet of Isola Alta, the daytime parade organised by the Combriccola col Baraonda, a carnival group born from the union of young people from Isola Alta and Belvedere di Roverbella, takes place. The centre of Vigasio hosts the evocative night parade of illuminated floats, organised by the association Le Ave Mate di Forette with the patronage of the Municipality.
