About Arts and Flavors

For three days straddling July and August, Zoppola transforms into a large open-air stage. Arts and Flavors, the International Street Performance Festival, now in its 20th edition, fills the most picturesque corners of the town in the province of Pordenone with jugglers, tightrope walkers, acrobats, and artists from all over the world, accompanied by food stalls and an artisan market.

When the town becomes a theater

There is an evening, at the end of July, when Zoppola sheds its skin as a quiet town in the Pordenone plain to don the guise of a grand, widespread theater. It's the beginning of Arts and Flavors, the International Street Performance Festival that for twenty years has enlivened the village with the magic of street artists and the aroma of food stalls.

Performances in every corner

In the most picturesque corners of the town, performance areas multiply, animated by dozens of shows: juggling, tightrope walking, acrobatics, theater, and music alternate in a packed program, featuring artists from Italy and abroad. In recent editions, the festival has broadened its horizons with areas dedicated to art, dance, theater, cinema, and photography, confirming its multidisciplinary vocation.

The flavors of the feast

Alongside the performances, the gastronomic aspect takes center stage: the food and wine stalls offer typical local and international specialties, accompanied by a wide selection of craft beers, while the artisan market completes the festive atmosphere. A combination of "arts" and "flavors," as the event's name itself suggests.

Twenty years of Pro Loco

Organized by Pro Loco Zoppola APS, the festival has grown to become one of the most anticipated summer events in Friuli dedicated to street art. With the support of the Municipality of Zoppola, the event attracts thousands of visitors each year, transforming the town into a crossroads of wonder, fun, and good food.
