Ladin Carnival and traditional masks
Winter
Typology:
The Dolomites have their own form of carnival, an overwhelming burst of traditions, music, dance and colours that fill the streets of Val di Fassa and Val Gardena, the hearts of Ladin culture. Meet Lachè, the graceful character that opens the parade. Dance to the sound of bronzins (big bells) with the Marascons (another local mask), then let yourself be dragged away by the Bufon, the leading figure of these celebrations.

Come and see carnival break loose
Lose yourself to the spirit of carnival
It’s not easy to imagine a more peculiar and engaging event than the Ladin Carnival. No one can resist its vital force.
Traditional masks
The main characters of this event are Lachè, the gentle ambassador at the forefront of the parade; the dancing Marascons and Bufon, the life and soul of the party with his irreverent jokes.
The joyful side of traditions
A huge festival which everyone - young and old - takes part in to keep the connection with the past, history and language of these valleys alive.
