Florence Gelato Festival

The Florence Gelato Festival below is no longer happening:


These comments were about the first festival in 2010:

"We had lots of great gelato, but the lines were long at times and the overall organization seemed a bit lacking. It did seem to be a big success however judging by the number of people eating ice cream. The "Gelato University" put on in Piazza Santissima Annunziata by industry giant Carpigiani was also packed for every lesson."

This year's event (2012) is scheduled for May 23rd to 27th and will take place in the following piazzas:

I think last year's edition was better than the first, and maybe 2012 will be their best yet. There is much more going on than just tasting gelato of course - visit the official website for more details (in Italian only).

These photos are from 2010 and 2011:
