About Early Childhood Festival

The Early Childhood Festival in Fossano is a free event dedicated to children aged 0 to 6 and their families. Under the theme 'Head, Heart, Belly', the City Park on Viale Alpi transforms into a space for meeting, playing, and discovery, brought to life by artistic, physical, and relational experiences designed for the youngest ones. Promoted by the Territorial Pedagogical Coordination of the Municipality of Fossano, in the province of Cuneo, it is an opportunity to enjoy a morning of sharing between parents and children in the open air.

A morning dedicated to early childhood

The Early Childhood Festival is a free event that the Municipality of Fossano, in the province of Cuneo, dedicates to children aged 0 to 6 and their families. With the subtitle Head, Heart, Belly, the festival offers a space for meeting, play, and wonder in the heart of the City Park on Viale Alpi, where nature and the outdoor setting become the ideal backdrop for the first social experiences of the little ones.

Head, Heart, Belly: the common thread

The title of the initiative encapsulates the spirit of the entire proposal: artistic, physical, and relational experiences that, as the slogan suggests, speak to the head, the heart, and the belly. The goal is to foster play, discovery, and sharing in a welcoming and inclusive context, focusing on the child's harmonious development through creativity, movement, and interaction with others and the park's natural environment.

A local project

The festival is promoted by the Territorial Pedagogical Coordination of the Municipality of Fossano, through the Personal Services department, and is carried out in collaboration with local entities, associations, and administrations. This network reflects the commitment of south-western Piedmont to early childhood policies and the construction of an educating community, where families, services, and institutions work together to support the growth of the little ones.

Why attend

  • Completely free admission for children and families.
  • Activities specifically designed for the 0-6 age group.
  • Outdoor setting in the greenery of the Fossano City Park.
  • An opportunity for parents, educators, and children from the Cuneo area to meet.

Fossano and the City Park

A town with a strong historical identity, dominated by the Acaja Castle, Fossano is one of the main centers of the Cuneo plains, in Piedmont. The City Park on Viale Alpi is a green lung just a short walk from the center, perfect for hosting an outdoor event aimed at families. The Early Childhood Festival thus fits into the rich calendar of events that bring the city to life during the warmer months.
