On Saturday 20 and Sunday 21 September, thanks to the fourth edition of the Festa dei popoli, the Piazza Grande in Locarno will be filled with colours, dances, sounds and flavours, transporting adults and children on a fantastic journey around the world.

In case of severe weather, the events on Saturday and Sunday will be moved to PalExpo (FEVI).

The most detailed and up-to-date information can be found on the Facebook and Instagram pages of the Festa dei Popoli and on the web page www.locarno.ch/festa-dei-popoli.

The event is organized by the City of Locarno with the support of the Cantonal Integration Program (PIC 3) of the Department of Institutions of the Canton of Ticino and is made possible thanks to the close collaboration with the Gastro & Commercio Locarno Association and the Cantonal Hospital Authority, thanks to the valuable financial contribution of some sponsors, including Fondazione Cultura nel Locarnese, Tognetti Auto, Prime Drinks and Podere Don Cataldo, Società Elettrica Sopracenerina and a generous fundraiser on the eroilocali.ch platform of Raiffeisen, as well as thanks to the media collaboration with Radio Ticino, which will also guarantee the presentations on stage in a professional manner, and the technical collaboration with EMME and InElettra. In addition to these, there is the invaluable contribution of various associations and volunteers who have made themselves available for the organization of the event.
