Aloha – Nonantola Ukulele Festival

In June 2025, the first edition of Aloha – Nonantola Ukulele Festival debuted in Nonantola (Province of Modena), conceived by Officine Culturali to give space to the small four-stringed instrument. The event launched the formula that characterizes the festival: free workshops open to beginners and enthusiasts, alongside evening open-air concerts.

From its first edition, the festival included the closure of some town center streets to traffic to allow for musical events, demonstrating the Municipality's attention to this new cultural offering. The success of the first edition paved the way for the event's return the following year, establishing Aloha as one of Nonantola's summer highlights.
