Easter Monday outings: ideas for April 6, 2026

If you plan a short trip for Easter Monday and want local festivals, processions or outdoor activities, here are recommended events in Tuscany and on Elba Island. All listed events take place on 6 April 2026.

Recommended events

  • Villa Reale di Marlia (Lucca): giant decorated eggs on display, a treasure hunt for families and picnic areas in the park. The historic villa opens its 16 hectares of gardens for an immersive spring afternoon.

  • Santa Maria a Monte (Pisa) – Procession of the Baskets: religious celebration in honour of Beata Diana Giuntini featuring a striking floral procession through the town. The procession starts at 18:00.

  • Castelfiorentino – Pasquetta at Petrazzi: guided visits to the villa where Garibaldi stayed, tug-of-war shows, 4×4 jeep tours, live music and local food. Visitors receive a package of traditional Garibaldi biscuits.

  • Piteglio (PT) – Sweet chestnut-flour festival: celebration linked to the return of the charcoal burners. From 12:00, stalls offer chestnut-flour specialties: necci, fritters, castagnaccio and sweet polenta.

  • Bibbona (LI): morning market and tastings for the Citron Festival, followed in the afternoon by the Barrel Palio where districts push large barrels in competition.

  • San Martino sul Fiora (Manciano, GR): second day of the 56th Sagra dell'Agnello, featuring the traditional lamb stew known as buglione served with rustic bread.

  • Pienza (SI): opening day of the spring festival in the Holm oak garden, with Tuscan specialties including grilled lamb.

  • Elba Island – Rio nell'Elba: Sagra della Sportella at the Hermitage of Santa Caterina, celebrating the traditional sweetheart pastry shaped like a horseshoe, typically held on Easter Monday.

Practical tips

  • Arrive early: morning markets and events attract visitors; parking and access can get busy.
  • Bring water and snacks: food stalls are common but queues may be long during peak hours.
  • Check local schedules: event times and details may change; confirm updates on organisers' websites or social channels.

Enjoy Easter Monday: pick an event that fits your interests and spend the day sampling local flavours and traditions outdoors.
