Battle of the Oranges 2027: Ivrea as a Day Trip
Mon 8 Feb from Gatwick is £104.00 for the day in Turin, the train to Ivrea is on top. Wear the red hat.
The Battle of the Oranges 2027 is on Sunday 7, Monday 8 and Tuesday 9 February in Ivrea, and you can do it in a day through Turin.
1. The dates, and when it starts
Three afternoons, Carnival Sunday through to Shrove Tuesday, starting at 14:00 each day. The wider Ivrea carnival 2027 opens on 6 January but these are the three days you come for.
2. You fly to Turin
Ivrea's about an hour north of Turin on the regional train. Our prices are for the day in Turin, so the train up and back is on top.
3. Monday's the cheap one
- Mon 8 Feb, out of Gatwick at 08:40, home into Stansted at 23:25, 7.6 hours, £104.00 (£62.00 flight, £42.00 on the ground)
- Tue 9 Feb, out of Luton at 06:15, home into Stansted at 22:55, 9.3 hours, £111.00
- Sun 7 Feb, out of Gatwick at 08:00, home into Stansted at 23:00, 7.8 hours, £165.00
Tuesday gives you the most time, you're on the ground well before the 14:00 start with room for the train.

4. Wear the red hat
The red cap tells the throwers you're watching and not fighting. Without one you're fair game, and an orange at that speed hurts.
5. You can join in
Throwing on foot means signing up with one of the nine teams, some take people from abroad. If you'd rather stay dry, watch from behind the nets they put up round the squares.
6. Ivrea orange fight from the UK, the catch
All three days fly out of one London airport and land back at Stansted late, so sort how you're getting home from there before you book.
