Every year, between February and March, Tuscany comes alive with colours, music and spectacular performances thanks to the Viareggio Carnival, one of the most famous and captivating events in Europe.
Just 30 minutes from Forte dei Marmi, the city of Lucca transforms every year into a true paradise of imagination: Lucca Comics & Games is one of the largest and most spectacular festivals in Europe, an unmissable event for fans of comics, games, cosplay, and pop culture of all ages.
Just a few minutes from the beautiful coast of Forte dei Marmi, amid the scenic meadows and shores of Lake Massaciuccoli, lies Torre del Lago — a small Tuscan village with a unique atmosphere. Every summer, it hosts the Puccini Festival, dedicated to the great composer whose operas are loved worldwide.
Just a few kilometers from the Tuscan coast, among the gentle hills of the Valdera, lies Lajatico, a small village with a unique atmosphere, immersed in a typically Tuscan landscape of vineyards, olive groves, and panoramic views that seem painted. Despite its small size, Lajatico has become famous worldwide thanks to the Teatro del Silenzio, the musical event conceived and directed by tenor Andrea Bocelli, which attracts thousands of music and art lovers every summer.
