Viareggio, the Carnival capital, reached the milestone of 144 years of its manifestation, and it does it in style with five extraordinary Masked Courses on the Avenues at the sea.
From 27th January to 17th February 2018, the city transforms into the factory of fun, including parades of giant papier-night parties, fireworks, masked balls, theater, culinary events and big sporting events worldwide.
The triple cannon is the unmistakable signal that the party starts in Viareggio, giving way to the parade. Like magic, the giant gargoyles come to life between movements, music and dancing. At every parade of floats 200 thousand spectators assist spellbounded by the gigantism of extraordinary buildings.
