Latest Events in Florence(August Updated)

Starting with the Saracen jousting, a popular event celebrated in the city of Arezzo, the exhibition aims to document war games using prints and drawings from various periods in the Uffizi Gallery, especially the numerous examples of helmets, weapons and armour from the famous collection of the Stibbert Museum. These knightly tournaments became popular in the Middle Ages and continued into the Renaissance, including the Crossbow Palio, which required contestants to have skills in precision, and the ancient Game of the Bridge, a contest of strength to conquer the Ponte Vecchio on foot. Visitors will see the most iconic piece in the exhibition, a 16th-century Buratto or Saracen quintain on loan from the Museo Nazionale del Bargello. Probably a celebration to mark the marriage of Francesco I and Bianca Cappero in 1579, the changes over the centuries have transformed it from a Saracen nobleman to the European warrior we see today. The exhibition emblem is another prestigious work of art, Stefano Della Bella’s Knight in Armour, made for the procession and loaned by the Uffizi Gallery. The sumptuous, ornate costumes and robes evoke the sheer splendor of participating in these spectacular events designed to celebrate the great and the good. In another painting loaned from the CR Florence Foundation, Stefano Della Bella depicts a night procession in the Boboli Gardens in 1637. Arms and armour are loaned by Florence’s Museo Stibbert, which has one of the richest collections of material on the ancient game of bridge in Pisa. Stibbert also loaned a fine set of 17th-century crossbows richly inlaid with hunting scenes, made by a workshop in southern Germany. And the collection of the Ivan Bruschi Foundation lends an interesting letter of challenge from “the unconquered, most glorious and ever-victorious King of the Indies, Brato”, issued to announce the version of the Saracen tournament that was held on August 26, 1674 in honor of Cardinal Corsini, Bishop of Arezzo.

From 18 June at the Museum of Costume and Fashion of Pitti Palace the exhibition promoted by the Ministry of Culture, organized and arranged by "Archivio Luce Cinecittà" in collaboration with the Uffizi Galleries.

The Festa delle Rificolone is a traditional festival in Florence, Italy, usually held on the evening of September 7th each year. The festival dates back to the Renaissance and is a celebration of the birth of the Virgin Mary and a tribute to the farmers who come to the city on September 8th to sell their agricultural products and handicrafts. The main feature of the Lantern Festival is the lantern parade. Children will take to the streets holding paper lanterns of various shapes and bright colors, which are usually lit by candles or modern LED lights. Traditionally, these lanterns are made into various patterns, and sometimes children's own lanterns are also involved in the parade. This festival also has an interesting custom: children will try to "attack" other people's lanterns with blowpipes or other means to extinguish them, which is a way of celebration and game. The Florence Lantern Festival is not only an event to commemorate tradition and history, but also an opportunity for families and communities to come together and enjoy a happy time at night.

The 15th Florence Biennale, which will take place from 18 to 26 October 2025, is dedicated to the primal, timeless union between light and darkness, which has always been at the centre of artistic, as well as scientific, philosophical and literary research. Object of study and reflection by many of the most brilliant thinkers in human history, from Heraclitus, Pythagoras and Aristotle to Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo, to Newton, Maxwell and Einstein, light represents not only a physical phenomenon but also a concept that is fundamental to life itself, connecting the macrocosm and the microcosm. Prompting us to contemplate the connection between what happens in our finite and fragile terrestrial world and what is inherent in the vastness of the universe. Architectural works of ancient civilizations, such as Stonehenge, Mayan temples and the pyramids of Giza, have long demonstrated the attention and devotion of our ancestors to sunlight, and the latter – representing the most visible and tangible manifestation of the luminous phenomenon on our planet – has always been a focus for artists.

Florence celebrates the artistic genius of Giovan Battista Foggini (1652-1725) with a major monographic exhibition, promoted by the Metropolitan City of Florence and organized by the MUS.E Foundation, which will be held at Palazzo Medici Riccardi from 10 April to 9 September 2025. The exhibition, curated by Riccardo Spinelli, is organized on the occasion of the third centenary of the artist's death and intends to restore to the public the extraordinary figure of the man who, with his 'interdisciplinary' work, ended up shaping the artistic language of late-Medici Florence.

Alongside the main exhibition dedicated to the great sculptor Giovan Battista Foggini, there is also the photographic exhibition “Foggini’s Florence. Views of Paolo Bacherini” – curated by Valentina Zucchi, based on an idea by Riccardo Spinelli, set up in the Fabiani Rooms of Palazzo Medici Riccardi – which offers a suggestive reading of the artist’s activity in the architectural fabric of the city.

The 'Age of Enlightenment' (and of reforms) is narrated through some 150 works set up in the ground floor rooms of the Gallery, with masterpieces by Goya, Tiepolo, Canaletto, Vigée Le Brun, Liotard, and Mengs: many never seen before, others hidden for over a decade due to the work to extend the exhibition route.

On May 7, 1925, the Istituto di Storia delle Scienze was inaugurated as a department of the University of Florence. The first of its kind in Italy, the Institute combined the objective of promoting the history of science with a new sensibility toward the collection and valorization of the material heritage of Italian science. Granted official status as an autonomous entity in 1927, opened to the public in 1930 in its current home in Palazzo Castellani, the Institute acquired a new name in 2010: Museo Galileo. Conceived to celebrate the hundredth anniversary of this Florentine institution, the exhibition presents rare and precious editions of volumes drawn mostly from the Fondo Mediceo-Lorenese, including scientific texts acquired over the centuries by the two Tuscan dynasties. The display offers visitors a unique opportunity to admire masterworks usually conserved out of view in the Museum’s library. Providing a framework for the display of books, a photographic exhibition documents the most important moments in the life of the Institute over these hundred years, accompanied by films exploring some of the research topics of particular interest to the Institute from its foundation to today. The story that emerges illustrates how Florence—with its traditions, history, and patrimony of texts and scientific instruments—has proven the ideal birthplace for this cultural institution, which embodies a model practically unprecedented in the panorama of Italian museums.
