The blood donors' festival of Commessaggio with food, dancing, and music
The AVIS Festival is the annual event organized by the local section of AVIS (Italian Association of Blood Volunteers) in Commessaggio, a small municipality in the province of Mantua in the Oltrepò Mantovano area. It takes place at the end of June at the sports field on Via Indipendenza.
The festival offers several evenings (traditionally four) of Mantuan cuisine, with food stalls alongside ballroom dancing and live music. It is one of the most cherished events of the summer in the town, attracting residents of Commessaggio and neighboring municipalities.
In addition to the convivial atmosphere, the AVIS Festival is also an occasion to remember the value of blood donation and support the activities of the local donors' section. It's an example of the vitality of volunteerism in the small towns of the Mantua province.

The traditional format is confirmed: several evenings with food stalls offering Mantuan cuisine, ballroom dancing, and live music, in a village festival atmosphere supporting blood donation.
