About Albenga d'Autore
Culture finds a home among the towers
At the beginning of July, the historic center of Albenga (Province of Savona) comes alive with Albenga d'Autore, a cultural event that draws names from the Italian literary, cultural, and entertainment world to the city. For five days, the most evocative squares and locations in the medieval village become spaces for meeting, dialogue, and enjoyment.
A widespread program for all ages
The schedule alternates book presentations and meetings with authors with workshops for children, theatrical performances, and musical moments. The widespread format allows visitors to experience the historic center in a new way, moving from one event to another among the city's towers, squares, and historic palaces.
Albenga's cultural summer
Part of the Municipality of Albenga's rich summer calendar, the event ideally opens the city's cultural events season, which will continue with the Palio Storico, Concertando tra i Leoni, and the Albenga Jazz Festival.
