Parade of musical bands and majorette groups

An explosion of rhythm, elegance, and tradition in the heart of Bardolino

The historic center transforms into an open-air stage where the great tradition of marching bands meets the spectacularity and grace of majorettes.

The event will kick off with the gathering of marching bands from the area and from guest regions, each bringing their own repertoire and cultural identity. Leading the way and capturing the audience's attention will be the majorette groups, true athletes of coordination. With their sparkling costumes, radiant smiles, and impeccable skill in handling the traditional batons (the sticks) and elegant pom-poms, they will perform geometric choreographies to the rhythm of music, combining elements of gymnastics, dance, and military precision.

The parade will wind along the main streets of the center, starting from the town gates to cross the historic squares and culminate in the picturesque setting of the lakeside. Along the way, the audience will find themselves immersed in an eclectic musical repertoire: from historic military and symphonic marches that set the tempo and evoke a charm of bygone days, to surprising arrangements of movie soundtracks and modern pop songs, capable of making both young and old dance and sing.
