Gran Festa da d'Istà

In Canazei, three days with typical dishes and folk music, culminating in the parade on Sunday afternoon of a thousand Ladins in their traditional costumes

The great festival that marks the end of summer. From 12 to 14 September, Canazei welcomes Ladins from Val di Fassa and the valleys around the Sella for three days of traditional cuisine, entertainment, and folk music. The highlight of the "Gran Festa da d’Istà" is the spectacular Sunday afternoon parade: at 3 p.m., about a thousand participants, including brass bands and folk groups, march through the town centre, greeted by the applause of the crowd. Some walk on foot, while others ride festively decorated carriages and floats, proudly displaying their splendid traditional costumes. At the end of the procession, in the open meadows of "Pian de Parèda", beside the marquee, the bands perform in unison, followed by folk groups showcasing their lively, rhythmic dances. Inside the marquee, renowned Tyrolean bands take turns on stage, keeping the crowd singing and dancing late into the night. And for food lovers, there are plenty of opportunities to sample local specialities and sweet treats, including "sones" (apple fritters) and "fortaes" (strauben), freshly prepared throughout the event.
