Carnival Comes to Minori: A Week of Masks, Music & Magic on the Amalfi Coast

Imagine strolling along Minori's stunning lungomare, the February sun warming your face, when suddenly you hear music and laughter spilling from the waterfront... 🎭

Carnival season has arrived on the Amalfi Coast, and Minori is pulling out all the stops! The town, in collaboration with the Forum dei Giovani, has crafted a delightful program that blends creativity, tradition, and pure fun for visitors and locals alike.

What's On the Calendar?

The festivities kick off with themed workshops that transform ordinary classes into Carnival celebrations:

πŸ—“οΈ February 10 β€” English class with a twist! Learn the language while crafting masks and discovering Carnival traditions from around the world

πŸ—“οΈ February 13 β€” Drawing workshop where you'll create your own masquerade masks and learn about the characters that define this magical season

πŸ—“οΈ February 8 (Sunday) β€” A special Cupcake Workshop! Pre-booking required, you'll bake Carnival-themed cupcakes to take home. Sweet treats + seaside views = perfect Sunday!

The Main Event: Festa di Carnevale πŸŽ‰

Monday, February 16 at 7:30 PM β€” This is the one you don't want to miss!

Head to the Lungomare California for an evening of live music by Rosario Sepe, colorful masks, and infectious energy. The whole town comes together for this open-air celebration right by the sea. If the weather doesn't cooperate, the party moves to the covered municipal tent β€” so the fun happens rain or shine!

Why you should go:
- Free entry (just bring your smile!)
- Live music that'll have you dancing
- Perfect opportunity to mingle with locals
- That magical Amalfi Coast evening atmosphere

Whether you're traveling with kids, looking for authentic local experiences, or simply want to soak up the festive spirit, Minori's Carnival delivers. It's these moments β€” the music, the masks, the community coming together β€” that transform a vacation into a memory you'll treasure forever.

πŸ‹ Local tip: Come early and grab a spot at one of the lungomare cafΓ©s for an aperitivo before the festivities begin. Nothing beats a spritz with a view of the sea as the sun sets!

Mark your calendars and bring your best mask β€” Minori is waiting! 🎭✨
