Edition 2025 — Brigantica Folk Fest

In 2025, the inaugural Brigantica Folk Fest stopped in Casalduni for three evenings: August 10 featured the "Brigand's Night" at the Terra di Briganti winery on the night of San Lorenzo, followed by the "Rotarian Ferragosto with Brigantica" on August 14 and 16, with flag-raising, historical walks, conferences, the docufilm "Druda, cuore di donna," a concert by Renanera, and the show "Terroni" by Roberto D'Alessandro.

In 2025, Casalduni was the richest stop of the first edition of the Brigantica Folk Fest, with three distinct evenings. On August 10, the night of San Lorenzo, the Terra di Briganti winery hosted the "Brigand's Night": a sunset cellar tour, a theatrical aperitif in the woods with rebellious narratives, a picnic under the stars, and sky observation with the Benevento Amateur Astronomers Group, at a cost of €35 per person.

On August 14 and 16, the "Rotarian Ferragosto with Brigantica" took place, promoted by the Rotary Clubs of Valle Telesina and Morcone San Marco dei Cavoti with the Municipality of Casalduni and the Pro Loco. On the 14th, the day began at 10 AM with a flag-raising ceremony and the "Path of Freedom" walk with Pino Aprile and Gennaro De Crescenzo, followed by a conference at the Teatro Aldo Moro on the daily life of brigands and the screening of the docufilm "Druda, cuore di donna"; in the evening, food stands and a concert by Renanera. On the 16th, from 6:30 PM, a historical walk with theatrical interludes led participants to the Castle of Casalduni, where a debate on brigandage was held (fee of €25, including guided tour, traveling show, aperitif, and tastings); at 9:30 PM, at Città Giardino, the show "Terroni: la vera storia dell'Unità d'Italia" by Roberto D'Alessandro was presented with free admission.
