400th Sciacca Carnivale 2026

Getting ready to go!



What a great job you did on your face and outfit!



Let us begin!

Yes, they are really big! The Sciacca Carnevale in Sicily "...marking a major milestone with spectacular allegorical floats, parades, and traditional celebrations..."





"... The festival features massive, artistic papier-mâché floats, known for satirical designs and elaborate craftsmanship. ..."

"...The floats are created by local associations in a competitive setting, aiming to represent the "three souls" of the festival: art, theater, and social commentary..."

Some of the float themes this year were:

- Netanyahu and Putin: Featured on a satirical, politically charged float.
- Trump: A, float featuring a skeleton holding a Nobel Peace Prize.
- Charles Darwin: A float depicting his horror at the "evolution" of man.

- Social Media Dangers: A float focusing on the negative impacts of digital connectivity.
- Peppe Nappa: The traditional, symbolic mask of the Sciacca Carnival, which opens and closes the event.

Damn!







Sparkling!

Don't look at me that way mister!
