Centro Culturale Giacomo PucciniEvents this year
The city's big festivals, food fairs and cultural seasons through the year. They're not just entertainment: they're the best training ground for your Italian. At a local festival you end up ordering, asking directions, chatting with locals: the real language, the kind books don't teach. If you can, line up a week of your course with one of these.
Carnevale di Viareggio In February floats twenty metres tall parade along the seafront, with caricatures of politicians and celebrities. Italian irony in its purest form: excellent for following current affairs and satire. | February |
Festival Puccini Between July and August Puccini's operas are staged in the open air at Torre del Lago, beside the lake where he wrote them. An unrepeatable setting for the vocabulary of opera. | July–August |
Premio letterario Viareggio-Rèpaci In summer one of Italy's oldest literary prizes brings writers and jurors to the seafront, with events open to the public. A chance for literary Italian and for discovering new authors. | summer |
