Estate al Trinci
The summer review in the Courtyard of Palazzo Trinci in Foligno
About Estate al Trinci
Culture under the stars at Palazzo Trinci
Promoted by the Municipality of Foligno, Estate al Trinci is the festival that brings shows and events to the scenic Courtyard of Palazzo Trinci, a 14th-century noble residence overlooking Piazza della Repubblica, in the historic centre of Foligno (Province of Perugia). For over a month, summer evenings are filled with theatre, dance, music, and words in a unique monumental setting in the heart of Umbria.
A Rich and Free Programme
The programme includes over forty events, largely free of charge on a first-come, first-served basis: theatre and dance performances, jazz and classical concerts, magic shows, readings, meetings with authors, exhibitions, and tastings such as "Calici di stelle a Palazzo Trinci" (Chalice of Stars at Palazzo Trinci). Ample space is dedicated to children and families, with shows like "Puss in Boots", "The Silent Circus", and "Games in the Courtyard".
A Widespread Format in the Historic Centre
The festival is part of a broader summer cultural season in Foligno, which also involves other spaces in the centre, such as the former Piermarini Theatre, now a cultural information point. Estate al Trinci has established itself in just a few years as one of the most beloved events of the Foligno summer.
Estate al Trinci — edition 2026

The festival alternates shows for adults and families, concerts, performances, tasting moments, and cultural meetings, confirming the widespread format that has made the initiative one of the most followed events of the Foligno summer.
