Coincidenze
A day of art, music, and beauty at Marsam Locanda
About Coincidenze
Coincidenze: the Renaissance court of Bene Vagienna
In the heart of the Cuneo countryside, at Marsam Locanda in the Roncaglia hamlet, Bene Vagienna (province of Cuneo, Piedmont), comes Coincidenze: a day designed to bring people together through culture and connection. The vision behind the event is clear from the name chosen by the organizers, "gathering in the name of beauty," resulting in an event that naturally blends art, music, literature, and gastronomy.
A modern Renaissance court
For one day, the inn transforms into a contemporary Renaissance court, where guests move freely from room to room, from the garden to the Roman vegetable garden, following the thread of various appointments. Acoustic concerts, dialogues with writers, screenings, readings, and wellness moments alternate, while the halls host permanent exhibitions of photography, painting, and sculpture, some from private collections.
Art, music, and flavors
The exhibition path pairs works by photographers, painters, and sculptors with a display of vintage cars, creating an unexpected dialogue between different languages. The common thread is the culinary offering of Marsam Locanda, accompanied by a selection of wines curated by a local oenologist: a sensory journey that unites tradition and modernity, culminating in the "6 PM snack," an exclusive culinary experience.
An event rooted in the territory
Coincidenze stems from the experience of the literary festival Coincidenze - tra le righe, also hosted at Marsam Locanda, expanding its format into a multidisciplinary day. It is an opportunity to discover a lesser-known corner of the province of Cuneo, in one of the hamlets of Bene Vagienna, far from the most crowded tourist circuits but rich in quality offerings.
Coincidenze — edition 2026
The 2026 edition of Coincidenze was held on Saturday, April 25, at Marsam Locanda in the Roncaglia hamlet, Bene Vagienna (CN). From morning to afternoon, the inn offered a dense and varied program: acoustic concerts, meetings with writers, a shamanic journey, tarot readings, a film screening, and exhibitions of photography, painting, and sculpture. The common thread was the culinary offering of Marsam Locanda with wines curated by Silvio Altare.
