The festivals

Even if the Palio takes place only on one day, the districts are active all year round with various events,

one of the the most anticipated are certainly the festivals, carefree evenings where the

local cuisine is the host.

We also find the classic dance floor with live music and at the end the classic bingo!

Each district carries out the festival in different periods so you will find it in any summer period

one of the festivals of the eight districts.

The main ingredient of all the festivals is obviously the typical Versilian product tordello,

each dish is prepared by the locals who take weeks to secure

everyone a mythical dish of Versilia tordelli.

The evenings are full of entertainment for both adults and children and are an excellent opportunity for
