750 Years of the Proclamation of Rothenburg ob der Tauber as an Imperial City

Posted on

In the heart of Franconia, amidst the ancient walls and picturesque landscapes of Bavaria, a celebration of extraordinary historical importance took place: the 750th anniversary of the proclamation of Rothenburg ob der Tauber as an imperial city.

The Bandierai degli Uffizi, with their skill and tradition, were invited to participate in this memorable event, bringing with them the art and culture of Florence.

The participation in the celebrations of Rothenburg ob der Tauber was not only an opportunity to showcase our abilities, but also represented an important moment of cultural exchange between two cities rich in history and tradition. Florence and Rothenburg share a common heritage of artistic and architectural beauty, and this event strengthened the bonds of friendship between our communities.

The Mastery of Flags: Bandierai of the Uffizi at the Nice Carnival

Posted on

In the heart of the Nice Carnival, the Bandierai degli Uffizi captured international attention with an extraordinary performance, our flag-wavers brought Florentine art and tradition to the promenade of the French Riviera, exceeding all expectations.

The Bandierai degli Uffizi, with mastery and dedication, have created a unique visual experience. Each movement of the flags told the story of centuries of tradition, giving the public an unforgettable vision of Italian culture.

The performance at the Nice Carnival highlighted not only the technical mastery of the Uffizi Bandierai but also their commitment to preserving Italy’s historical and cultural roots. The performance demonstrated the strength and beauty of Florentine traditions, keeping alive the passion for the ancient arts of flag-waving.

Thanks to Mr. Fulvio Trifelli and at the International Show Parade, as well as Marco Pucci for the photographs.

Half a century for Florence

Posted on

The wait is over and the first event of the year has finally begun.

The cutting of the ribbon carried out by Mayor Dario Nardella in the presence of the President of the Tuscany Region Eugenio Giani, the President of the City Council Luca Milani, the President of Calcio Storico Michele Pierguidi and the Director of the Parade of the Florentine Republic Filippo Giovannelli, was preceded by a performance of the Bandierai.

In fact, the “Bandierai degli Uffizi” exhibition was inaugurated on Saturday 18 February, created by the 3 curators appointed by the group: Massimo Marmugi, Claudio Manes Mariani and Gian-Luca Pasquini, who worked under the watchful wing of Captain Antonio Marrone to create a multi-dimensional project.

The first dimension is that of the meticulous reconstruction of the history of the group through a photographic repertoire chosen by the curators, accompanied year by year by historical events of the time.

The second dimension is the exhibition one with the possibility of admiring and even touching some instruments. There is the first drum from 1960 and the first flag from 1973. There are the clothes and a selection of prizes and awards obtained by the group in 50 years.

The third dimension is the multimedia one. Indeed, on the niches of the Sala d’Arme of Palazzo Vecchio are reproduced some contemporary and period videos, recent and black and white photos.

In short, it is worth going to see the Bandierai exhibition!

Here we go, the countdown is over.

Here is the celebratory logo that we created for the 50th anniversary of the birth of the group.

This logo will accompany all the events of 2023.

But let’s start from the beginning. Who made it? one of our Junior flag-wavers who is studying at the Liceo Artistico in Florence, Cosimo Casciarri.

He was asked to highlight the figures of the group and to tell Florence through its main monuments.
