a bit, to this day that promises to be really special: we will do the "making of" the Carnival of Viareggio. In short, we'll tell you how a edition of the Carnival, through its steps, and through contributions that will introduce you step by step.
Unlike previous editions, the first step of the Carnival 2011 it had last spring with the launch of a competition to choose the poster of this year. The competition was a national character, and has seen come to Viareggio, and more specifically the offices of the Carnival Foundation, sites at Palazzo delle Muse, numerous works, from a bit 'all over ITALY. In the end, won this was a work of Versilia EDOARDO Cera, formerly of mascheratista Viareggio Carnival whose work, we see pictured below, was submitted in early August and exhibited from the balcony of City Hall.
thus present in early August edition, it was the turn at the end of August, the delivery of the sketches from the wall of the tank drivers, containing the subjects of the floats and masks dele isolated group of '2011 edition. Passed the scrutiny of the Technical and Artistic Commission of the Carnival Foundation, the sketches were presented to the public in a special evening, held in late October, and organized the Theatre Jenco Viareggio. But how did that evening, but above all, addressing topics such as the wagons of the 2011 CARNIVAL OF VIAREGGIO? We see in this double service, created by Federico Conti and Giacomo Lucarini, transmitted by the news of Versilia NETWORK, this year the official broadcaster of the Viareggio Carnival
presented the designs of wagons is Thus began a real race against time, trying to make the floats ready for the first course, held last February 20. There have been setbacks, such as that which involved the bandwagon BROTHERS Bonetti, who unfortunately could not play the first course, because it was not yet fully completed. But how had the wagons around mid January, then to nearly a month after the courses? We see in this movie, made by the family AMBROSINI
In this movie, always caring for the family Ambrosini, the situation in the hangars of the city of Carnival, a few days of Carnival 2011
addition, however, the various tanks to be implemented this year, great attention has been given by the Carnival of Viareggio the 150 anniversary of the unification of Italy. Not surprisingly, the Carnival Foundation has changed, compared to other years, the inauguration ceremony, rebuilding the landing of Garibaldi with the thousands, in Teana, with the meeting of the Garibaldi and King Victor Emmanuel II. Choice, this, that has meant that the carnival of Viareggio was the first event scheduled to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the unification of Italy, in addition to the important patronage of both the Ministry of Heritage and Culture, and Ministry of Tourism. Dedicated to GARIBALDI was also isolated a masquerade, designed by Luca Bertozzi. In this movie, produced by RICCARDO COSCO, we show how was the head of GARIBALDI, starting from the frame until its final realization. A truly fascinating film, never shown on television, and we show the exclusive
So, as I said before, one of the highlights of the inauguration, which took place Saturday, February 19, was certainly the meeting between Garibaldi and Victor Emmanuel II, who sanctioned the de facto ' UNIT OF ITALY. Hoping to make something pleasant, we show the synthesis of the inauguration
Concluded the historical reconstruction, followed by more than 30,000 people at the end of a beautifull day, almost spring, an impressive fireworks spetttacolo has in fact opened the 138 th edition of the Carnival of Viareggio. Show where we show the Key stages.
After the great success of the opening, highly appreciated of Viareggio, is great expectation for the 1st course in disguise, Sunday, Feb. 20. The beginning is not the best. As the inauguration began at the end of a beautiful spring day, the first course takes place under a slow but heavy rain. Actually, the manufacturers would not want the course to take place, but the president of Carnival Foundation, Alessandro Santini, also authorizes the course. The course, therefore, takes place regularly, but no shortage of controversy, beginning with the tank drivers. The carts, in fact, they are forced water to stand for more than five hours, and the damage is different. This is why the tank drivers, Wednesday, Feb. 23 (three days after the first course) feel that the Foundation in case of a second during the wet floats would remain within the hangar.La FOUNDATION notes the justified protest of the tank drivers, and suggests a date recovery, March 17, the anniversary of the unification of ITALY, where a course because of bad weather, had to be postponed. But that's another story.
As we said before, the first being masked is held regularly, but depleted by the absence of the wagon BROTHERS BONETTI, the choreography of the wagons, still remained without movement, and with masking forced to get off the wagons 1 and class 2, and masked. Santini is the President's decision to guarantee a show, however, thousands of people come to Viareggio for the first course in disguise. At the end of the day, the budget is not positive, but not too negative about 40,000 people attended the first course, with more than 1000,000 Euro collection.
