Description

The most important festival that takes place in Lucignano is without question the May Festival. It is an annual village festa in the spirit of the best rural Tuscan tradition, a sort of reconfirmation of the ancient celebrations for the new spring and summer seasons after the long winter period, almost a propitiatory rite in the belief of an abundant crop. And today, as in centuries past, the Festival has a very precise interrelationships in which the dominant role is represented by the celebration of our memories of the past: the parade is a procession of symbolic allegorical floats adorned with flowers with the participation of musical and folk groups that come from all over Italy and also from abroad.
