Visiting Florence in August is different to visiting any other month, and today we are showing you why! We walk through the streets of Florence during Ferragosto weekend to find out just how packed the city is during the busiest Italian public holiday of the year! We share why Italy and the month of August have a relationship dating back to the 1st century BC with the creation of Ferragosto, as well as what you can expect with your visit. And we stop in for some delicious gelato at Gelateria dei Neri :)

Ferragosto is a public holiday celebrated on 15 August in all of Italy. It originates from the festival of emperor Augustus, who made the 1st of August a day of rest after weeks of hard work in the agricultural sector. As the festivity was created for political reasons, the Catholic Church decided to move the festivity to the 15th of August as it is the Assumption of Mary.

As always, beautiful video guys! In our humble opinion you should try Panini Toscani instead of the famous Antico Vinaio. Give it a go the next time you're in the area:) Thank you for taking us back to Firenze through your amazing shots! And yes, coppette is much easier to manage!:)

That was an earlier Cosimo in the TV show. The statue is a Cosimo several generations later after the Medici came back and established a monarchy.

Vinaio and Dei Neri are the best. If you are still there next time for Dei Neri get the pistachio ice cream it's sooooo good and unique. Also La Strega Nocciola is another amazing gelateria

I planned to fly from US to Italy next month to start my master degree program. However, I am worried about the impact the war between Russia and Ukrainian has on Italians’ daily life such as food price and utility bill. I will highly appreciate if you can give us some updates on these issues.

We were there a few days before and left on the day of Ferragosto to go to Sorrento. We did queue up at Antica Vinaio crazy ! Great city so much to see and do and the sunset at Ponte Vecchio is gorgeous with the reflection.

Via de Neri is not true artisan gelato. Sadly it's the massed produced junk.

It's ill advised to go to central / southern Italy in July / August unless your priority is to soak in the Adriatic or Mediterranean.
There's more than one "All'Antico Vinaio in Florence, but I'm guessing you already know that.

Hey guys. Fun video. The gelato looked VERY good. And it is funny, during Ferragosto, the people all leave where you are in Florence, and they pack areas, like our Scalea. Lol. Again, great video. Thanks for sharing. Baci Baci.

my solution to the gelato/ice cream / hot days is to not buy them when it's too hot. I can't handle the rush to consume and avoid the rapid melting and/or mess. LOL. Have fun. Yes a cup is easier but a cone is more adventurous.

Are you kidding? Those lines for All'antico Vinaio were nothing LOL. When I was there in July of 2019 you couldn't even walk down the street there were so many people waiting. I was also there in May 2022 and there were a lot more people waiting in the line than what you're showing. That place is not to be missed - it's worth the wait. You two are awesome. I'm enjoying your Italy adventure. Gelato is good too for dinner LOL.

Ciao ragazzi! I am an American that has lived in Firenze since Oct. 2021. My apartment is just a couple blocks from Via di Neri and All'Antico Vinaio. I'm like 30 steps from the Piazza Santa Croce on Borgo Santa Croce. I have also watched all of the Medici related series and documentaries. I love the history and intrigue of the Medici dynasty and the renaissance. I'll keep my eye open for you guys!!! 🙂 Paul in Firenze
