The traditional exploding of the cart won’t be taking place on Easter Sunday this year in Florence, for obvious reasons. Instead, at 9.30am on April 12, the Archbishop of Florence, accompanied by the Mayor of Florence and the city’s standard, will carry a candle out in front of the cathedral from the high altar before lighting it. This symbolic gesture will take place in the empty piazza on Easter Sunday morning and can be watched live on TV Prato.
