Great success for the Bandierai degli Uffizi in Florence on the occasion of the 53rd edition of Debrecen Veràgkarneval, one of the most important events in all of Hungary.
Three days of performances culminating in the great parade on August 20, the Hungarian national holiday, where about 400 thousand people admired the 10 floral floats and a huge procession made up of almost two thousand figures and artists from all over the world.
The Bandierai degli Uffizi marched together with a large representation of the Historical Parade of the Florentine Republic accompanied by the president of Calcio Storico Michele Pierguidi.
The flag wavers’ performances were met with incredible enthusiasm by the Hungarian public.

We are delighted to announce that the “Bandierai degli Uffizi” will perform at the Palazzo dei Papi in Avignon on 6 October on the occasion of the inauguration of the week of Italian culture in the French city.
After 2 years where, due to the pandemic, it was not possible to perform abroad, we return to take our traditions around the world, and we do it in a splendid city rich in history.
A small representation of our group, in compliance with the AntiCovid regulations, performed at the weekend that saw the Formula E circus go on stage in Rome for the double Italian stage of the world championship of electric cars.
Another important and unique event that we had the pleasure of participating in even in such a difficult period.
For the first edition of the Formula 1 Grand Prix held at the Mugello Circuit, the Bandierai degli Uffizi had the opportunity to perform in the pre-show of the official Sunday race.
The deployment on the starting grid of the circuit was very exciting and it was the right prelude to an equally unique race.
For the occasion, the group was able to show off, in addition to the traditional flags representing the lily of Florence, a cloth in honor of the 1000 Scuderia Ferrari Grand Prix.
The high fashion tailoring of Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana chose Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, for the rebirth of fashion in 2020.

After a parade inside the hall of the 500 of Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, the guests of the designers moved to the arengario of the historic building, to attend a deployment of the Procession of the Florentine Republic and an exhibition of flags and drums of the Bandierai of the Uffizi.
A fantastic setting for a unique and suggestive show.
On the occasion of the celebrations for the historic milestone of the 1000 Grand Prix achieved by the Scuderia Ferrari, the Bandierai degli Uffizi had the honor of performing in the event organized by the same car manufacturer, in Piazza della Signoria in Florence.
In the midst of the historic models of the prancing horse stable, our flags have entertained today’s and yesterday’s riders, as well as current managers, in the middle of a red-colored Piazza della Signoria and artistic projections on the facade of the historic building.
Thanks to Scuderia Ferrari for the wonderful pictures.
