Events & Festivals in Florence
Edit ThisThroughout the year a series of events are held in Florence, which are varied enough to suit most demands. Foremost among these - in the city where modern melodrama was born, using the latest arts of choreography - musical events, beginning with the "Florence Musical May" and going on to Summer and Winter operatic seasons at the Teatro Comunale etc.
The Florence Centre of Italian Fashion organises numerous trade events over the year. International exhibitions in contemporary art and in the particular aspects of antique art are organised, specially on the occasion of various centenaries. Some of the typical traditional events are Football in Costume, the Burst of the Cart, the Feast of St. John etc.
