Do you know to whom june 2 is an holiday ?
June 2 Holiday in Italy Thursday May 28, 2009 June 2 is an Italian national holiday for the Festa della Repubblica. Shops and banks will be closed but many towns celebrate the day in 1946 that Italians voted in favor of the republican form of government. I’ve seen signs for festivals in several towns near us. Rome holds a large parade presided over by Italy’s president and military bands play music in the gardens of the Quirinale, open to the public. The Colosseum is usually draped with a big Italian flag, too. More: June Festivals in Italy | Summer in Italy Sources: http://goitaly.about.com/b/2009/05/28/june-2-holiday-in-italy.
