Here, the public can enjoy performances by street artists, traditional dances, and live entertainment, creating an atmosphere of pure excitement and fun.<\/p>\n<p>At <strong>3:30 PM<\/strong>, the majestic Carnival procession\u2014led by allegorical floats and groups in costume\u2014sets off along the main streets of central Florence, eventually reaching <strong>Piazza della Signoria<\/strong>, the vibrant heart of the city. Guiding the festive crowd is <strong>Stenterello<\/strong>, the iconic mask of the Florentine Carnival, famous for his lively character, irresistible wit, and humorous banter, delighting spectators with his playful gags.<\/p>\n<p>From <strong>February 7 to 17<\/strong>, the Carnival moves into Florence\u2019s neighborhoods, taking on a more widespread and participatory dimension: less spectacle, more community. Public gardens, squares, and local spaces become the true heart of the celebration, with events designed primarily for families and children, yet engaging the entire city.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Saturday, February 7<\/strong> marks the official start of the neighborhood celebrations. The central event is the <strong>Carnevale dei Borghi (District 5)<\/strong>: colorful parades of performers and masked participants depart at <strong>2:30 PM<\/strong> from <strong>Piazza I\u00b0 Maggio<\/strong>, <strong>Piazza Garibaldi<\/strong>, and <strong>Piazza Ilaria Alpi and Miran Hrovatin<\/strong>, converging around <strong>3:30 PM<\/strong> at the <strong>San Piero a Quaracchi Garden<\/strong>, where the festivities continue with entertainment for children. On the same afternoon, Carnival also animates other green spaces in the area: at <strong>3:00 PM<\/strong> in the <strong>Via Morandi Garden<\/strong> and at <strong>3:30 PM<\/strong> in the <strong>Via Allori Garden<\/strong>, with games, music, and masks.<\/p>\n<p>The celebrations continue on <strong>Sunday, February 8<\/strong>, with an afternoon dedicated to entertainment in gardens and city squares. At <strong>3:00 PM<\/strong>, Carnival reaches the <strong>Lippi Garden<\/strong>, then moves at <strong>3:30 PM<\/strong> to <strong>Piazza Dalmazia<\/strong>, reaffirming the popular and inclusive spirit of these events. That same afternoon, <strong>District 2<\/strong> hosts a particularly rich program: the <strong>Grand Carnival Party<\/strong> in the <strong>Villa Arrivabene Garden<\/strong> (at <strong>4:00 PM<\/strong>), featuring creative workshops\u2014such as wooden toy-making\u2014<em>pentolaccia<\/em>, music, and the award ceremony for the best costumes. A free event designed especially for families and children, yet capable of creating a shared festive atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>The calendar continues on <strong>Saturday, February 14<\/strong>, when Carnival once again takes center stage at the <strong>Medaglie d\u2019Oro Garden (District 5)<\/strong>. From <strong>3:30 PM<\/strong>, entertainment, games, and activities for children transform the garden into a lively meeting place, extending the Carnival spirit into the final week.<\/p>\n<p>The celebrations conclude on <strong>Tuesday, February 17<\/strong>, <strong>Shrove Tuesday<\/strong>, traditionally the climax of Carnival and the last day before the start of Lent. Alongside the informal festivities throughout the city, Florence offers a significant cultural highlight: the <strong>Carnival Concert at the Teatro Verdi<\/strong>, performed by the <strong>Orchestra della Toscana<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>At <strong>9:00 PM<\/strong>, <em>Carnival Reloaded \u2013 The Art of Disguise in Music<\/em> takes the stage, a program spanning works by Verdi, Paganini, Vivaldi, Piazzolla, and other composers, translating the themes of masquerade and transformation into music. A more intimate and elegant finale that complements the neighborhood festivities with a refined, symbolic, and concert-style conclusion to the Florentine Carnival.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fhhotelgroup.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/trpla-sup-exe-1.jpg\" alt=\"FH55 Hotels - Florence Carnival 2026: program and events 1\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"i-4\"><\/span>Where to stay in Florence for Carnival 2026<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Choosing where to stay in Florence during Carnival means finding the right balance between comfort, location, and overall quality of the experience.
