A night of cabaret in the heart of the Asti Monferrato
About Cantarana Comedy Night
An evening of laughter in the Asti Monferrato
The Comedy Night in Cantarana is one of the most anticipated events in the summer calendar of this village in the Province of Asti, Piedmont. Organized by the Cantarana Pro Loco, the event brings the best of Italian and Piedmontese comedy to town, transforming the venue into a large open-air stage where the public gathers to laugh together.
Nationally renowned comedians
The highlight of the evening is the presence of well-known cabaret artists who know exactly how to warm up the crowd with their signature acts. Recent editions have featured Fabrizio Brignolo, a familiar face of Piedmontese comedy and host of the evening, joined by Max Cavallari and Max Pisu, two legendary names in Italian cabaret. Through gags, jokes, and iconic characters, the artists performed their most beloved routines, treating the audience to a night of pure entertainment.
A village event that packs the square
Although Cantarana is a small town of just under a thousand inhabitants, the Comedy Night attracts a much wider audience: the last edition drew about 700 people, confirming how much this type of event engages the entire community of the Asti area and neighboring towns. It is a testament to how local Pro Loco associations can use passion and organization to bring high-level shows even to the smallest centers.
The Pro Loco and artistic direction
The event stems from the commitment of the Cantarana Pro Loco, which has always been active in promoting the area and enlivening village life, in collaboration with FTD Eventi for artistic direction. It is a formula that combines the Piedmontese tradition of volunteering and community spirit with the professionalism required to bring top-tier artists to the stage.
