[vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1520853310750{padding-bottom: 70px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]The Carnival of the Dolomites<\/strong> is an event that brings together folklore, art, tradition and storytelling, as well as music and dancing, all in a happy, cheerful atmosphere..<\/p>\n

It takes place every year on the last Sunday of Carnival<\/span><\/strong>, the next appointment will be February 15, 2026.<\/span>
\nEach valley has a different typical carnival figure<\/strong> that is the star of the carnival celebrations, which always bring in the crowds.
\nWhat the Carnival of all the valleys have in common is the presence of a guiding character<\/strong> and others that play the part of their courtiers, each with a different social role.
\nThe Val del Biois Carnival<\/strong> parade takes place in Canale d\u2019Agordo<\/strong> on the last Sunday of the Carnival period<\/strong>, and celebrates the proclamation of the Zinghenesta<\/strong>, the most beautiful girl in the village.
\nThe election of the Zinghenesta\u00a0of the year is a moment of great joy, and the girl, dressed in traditional attire, parades and dances through the streets of the centre, accompanied by the Mat\u00e8l<\/strong>, which can be recognised from the tall cone-shaped hat and the multi-coloured ribbons hanging down from their neck, and the Lach\u00e9<\/strong>,\u00a0similarly dressed, but with a shorter hat.
\nEach carnival figure has a specific role<\/strong>, which follows a tradition passed down through the ages; other characters present include the Pai\u00e0zo and the\u00a0B\u00e8r,\u00a0both wearing distinctive wooden masks, as well as the Spazzacamino<\/strong>\u00a0and many others.
\nThis is an experience not to be missed if you\u2019re spending a holiday in Falcade and the surrounding area during the Carnival period.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_column_text css=””]Find out the brochure for more informations<\/strong><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50px”]
