Carlton Italian Festa

The Carlton Italian Festa, also known as La Dolce Italia or the Lygon Street Fiesta, is a melting pot that showcases Italy’s diverse culture in Melbourne.

The celebration of Italy’s culture brings together locals of Italian descent as well as those who are interested in Italy’s culture. With great stage entertainment and a craft market where visitors can get souvenirs, the Fiesta is a fun place to be in Melbourne.

The carnival rides attract many visitors looking for fun. Plenty of cultural activities and an extensive collection of Italian antiquities are also on display. If you are a coffee drinker, you will be spoilt for choice, as Italians are the connoisseur of all things coffee.

As with any great festival, food is the hallmark of a people’s culture, and the Carlton Italian Festa is no different. Sample a range of Italian cuisine at the festival, including freshly-made pizza or authentic lasagne and top it up with a decadent dessert and a great wine.

You will also find plenty of musical performances, and DJs will turn up the music when the sun goes down to keep the festival atmosphere going!

Typically, when the Carlton Italian Festa commences, both ends of the street are closed down to make space for the cafes, food stalls and shops that remain open for the period of the festival. So those looking to travel to the event should be mindful of these road closures, which will disrupt the traffic.

So come and visit this great festival and experience all the great things about Italy.
