Carnevale

This is the period before Lent running from Twelfth Night to Ash Wednesday. It is celebrated with fancy dress parties, confetti, and streamers, especially during the weekend running from giovedì grasso (the last Thursday) to martedì grasso (Shrove Tuesday), which is the final day. The Venice carnival is very famous, with its open-air shows and fancy-dress balls, and so is the Viareggio carnival with its parade.
