The Festival of the Cricket
Italy has a few very interesting festivals and events.
Some of these Italy events are more popular than others or perhaps just odder.
You will find that Ascension Day is actually a Pagan Holiday of Italy.
In Florence Italy caged crickets are sold and then released into the grass.
The ritual of Italy is supposed to celebrate the times when a suitor would bring a cricket to the door of their lovers and serenade them.
The festival takes place in Cascine Park.
If you have a fiancée or perhaps just a loved one you may want to take part in the festival to serenade her or him.
