Programme

The 38th edition of the highly anticipated International Gathering of Chimney Sweeps, one of Piedmont's historic events, is scheduled from Friday 30 August to Monday 2 September 2019.

Recollections, music, traditional stories and an evocative parade with hundreds of chimney sweeps from all over the world, who return each year to their homeland of origin, the Vigezzo Valley.

Organized by the National Chimney Sweep Association with the collaboration of the Municipality of Santa Maria Maggiore and the Pro Loco of Santa Maria Maggiore, it is undoubtedly one of the most well-known Piedmontese events, a real tribute to the Vigezzo Valley, the cradle of the chimney sweep trade.
