The Region of Piedmont's Carnival celebrations are historically-renowned, and they involve everyone with their traditional, fun and exciting events. First, Turin: if this city of the Savoys had its own mascot, it would certainly be the famous Mask of Gianduja, protagonist – along with his love, Giacometta – of the local Carnival parade.
Known and loved both domestically and abroad is Ivrea's monumental Carnival (Province of Turin).
