Edition 2025 — Altare Glass Fest

The 2025 edition of Altare Glass Fest, the thirteenth, enlivened the village of Altare near Savona with live demonstrations by master glassmakers between the Museum of Altarese Glass Art and Villa Rosa. Masters from different traditions showed the public the techniques of glassblowing and glassworking, celebrating the ancient Altarese glass art.

The 2025 edition of Altare Glass Fest confirmed the festival's role as a major event dedicated to the art of glass. Within the furnaces of the Museum of Altarese Glass Art and the spaces of Villa Rosa, master glassmakers from various traditions performed live demonstrations, working incandescent glass in front of the public. The event renewed the pride of the village of Altare for an artisan tradition that, along with that of Murano, represents Italian glassmaking excellence.
