Carnival in Welschnofen

Our editorial team always tries to provide detailed and accurate information, but it is possible that events undergo changes that we are unable to update in real time. Exact details on dates, times and programmes can be obtained directly from the organiser.
The carnival calls for a wild celebration with music, a parade and a lot of fun in the village of Welschnofen.

Cheerful carnival parties and the big parade in costumes have a long tradition in Welschnofen.

From 27 February to 4 March 2025, the streets in the village are full of the so called "Schuffener" with their colourful and funny costumes. The name "Schuffener" comes from "Schuffa", the South Tyrolean dialect word for a traditional farmer’s meal made of milk. 

For one week everything in the village is about carnival parties, jokes, amusement and delicious traditional sweets. Furthermore, you can spend a wonderful day on the slopes of the ski areas Carezza or Obereggen between one carnival event and another!

Highlight: Schuffener parade

The highlight of the crazy festivities takes place on Shrove Tuesday, 4 March: the Schuffener parade! At 3:00 p.m., the parade starts at the Rosengarten Street and goes through the village to the house of culture. After admiring the fantastic costumes and colourful wagons, you can enjoy the big party in the house of culture.

If you love the magic of carnival, you should not miss this unforgettable experience for the whole family in Welschnofen!
