Caret a Castion (cart in dialect) or “Carrettata” is a downhill race along the main street of the square in Castion (BL) with vehicles created with imagination and without engines.
It is a fun competition, designed to promote enjoyment and creativity.
Participants are invited to present themselves with original carts and imaginative clothing, always in compliance with safety regulations.
There will be three separate rankings based on age and teams, but there will also be recognition for the strangest carts and the most amusing competitors.
Competitors are divided into three categories: Boce with single teams reserved for boys born between 2013 and 2018, Pro uniol with single teams reserved for those born before 2013, and Pro de pì with teams of 2 or more competitors born before 2013.
The competition consists of 3 timed heats.
To register, the form available on the Pro Loco Pieve Castionese website www.castion-belluno.it must be filled out.
The event, held every year on April 25 and reaching its sixth edition in 2026, has seen the number of registrants triple in just a few years and now attracts participants from all over Veneto and even from outside the region.
As a backdrop to the race, there will be a kiosk from Pro Loco Pieve Castionese with sandwiches, tripe, and fries, accompanied by drinks and live music starting at 7 PM with “Mely and the Moodies.”
In case of bad weather, the race will be postponed to a date to be determined, which will be promptly communicated by the organization.
