Every at Ponte Nossa in the Seriana Valley in the province of Bergamo, the "Mazzo Festival" is celebrated between April and June. The festival involves cutting down an enormous fir tree on Mount Guazzaand carrying it down to be burnt at the beginning of June following the rules of an ancient ritual.
