Cinema in Salmour

Cinema returns to Salmour

Following the success of last season, cinema returns by popular demand to Salmour, a town in the Province of Cuneo, in the heart of the Piedmontese plains between Fossano and Trinità. The Cinema in Salmour series is organized by the Municipality in collaboration with I Portici CinemaTeatro of Fossano and the Cinedehors Cultural Association, an organization that has been bringing the big screen to small towns in the Cuneo area for years.

Two souls: the hall in winter, the park in summer

The program features two distinct phases that accompany the public throughout the year. During the cold months, screenings are held in Sala Vaira, the municipal space dedicated to cultural events, while with the arrival of the warmer season, the cinema moves outdoors to Parco Crova, where the screen lights up under the stars for the Cinema in the Park evenings.

An event for families and children

The common thread of the series is its family-friendly and intergenerational nature: the chosen titles are designed to be enjoyed together by children and adults alike, in a festive atmosphere that turns cinema into an opportunity for the whole community to meet. Winter screenings in Sala Vaira often include double showings at different times to allow more spectators to attend; the summer events at Parco Crova, on the other hand, capture the spirit of classic village open-air cinema nights.

Limited seating and reservations

As these are intimate venues, especially for events in Sala Vaira, reservations are highly recommended. Bookings can be made by contacting the Salmour municipal offices directly. It is this attention to the audience's experience, rather than the scale of the numbers, that makes Cinema in Salmour a small jewel of local cultural programming in Piedmont.

Salmour and its surroundings

Salmour is an agricultural village nestled in the Cuneo countryside, just a few kilometers from Fossano and the enchanting landscapes of the Langhe and Roero. Initiatives like this film series testify to the cultural vitality of small Piedmontese towns, capable of offering their residents and visitors quality entertainment even far from the big cities.
