Carnevale di Putignano 2027 – 633ª Edizione 2026 — Putignano (BA)

Step into the heart of Puglia for the Carnevale di Putignano 2027, a legendary fête populaire that holds the title of the oldest and longest-running carnival in Europe. Established in 1394, this historic event transforms the town into a vibrant stage where centuries of tradition meet contemporary satire. From the opening Propaggini verses on December 26th to the final revelry of Mardi Gras, the streets pulse with an energy found nowhere else in Italy. The experience centers on four grand sfilate, or parades, featuring colossal allegorical floats meticulously crafted by local master cartapestai. These towering papier-mâché giants navigate the charming centro storico di Putignano, surrounded by a whirlwind of music, masked performers, and ancestral rites like the Festa dell'Orso on February 2nd. Every corner of the city offers a different show, blending political satire with artisanal craftsmanship that has been passed down through generations. It is a sensory feast that invites visitors to lose themselves in the magic of Italian folklore. Welcoming over 100,000 visitors each edition, the atmosphere is electric yet deeply rooted in local identity. While official dates for 2027 are pending, the celebration typically reaches its peak in early February with a series of high-energy parades and street parties. For those planning a visit, tickets for the main parade days are required, with past prices serving as a helpful guide for your travel budget. Do not miss your chance to witness this world-class spectacle in the stunning landscape of Puglia.
