Family Rave Festival

An electronic festival in the woods of Val Pellice

The Family Rave Festival brings electronic music to the upper Val Pellice, in Villar Pellice, a small mountain town in the Metropolitan City of Turin, Piedmont. The event is scheduled for the weekend of July 18th and 19th, 2026, at the VALPE DOOR venue, located at Via Cross 1. The event is organized by the Sonic Tree Project collective in partnership with the local entity that manages the space.

Two days of music, nature, and wellness

The festival's philosophy revolves around four key pillars: nature, music, wellness, and sports. More than just a rave, the event is designed as a complete experience that alternates DJ sets with outdoor activities, taking advantage of Villar Pellice's prime location, surrounded by trails, woods, and mountains. The program spans two days: Saturday, July 18th, with DJ sets and performances from 3:00 PM until midnight, and Sunday, July 19th, from 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM.

VALPE DOOR, the festival venue

The festival takes place at VALPE DOOR, a multifunctional center dedicated to outdoor tourism, established in 2023 through the redevelopment of the former municipal sports hall in Villar Pellice. The facility is a hub for mountain enthusiasts, featuring e-mountain bike rentals, changing rooms, a washing area, a workshop, and a lounge garden used for events. It is this dedication to outdoor hospitality that makes the space ideal for a festival that puts nature at the center.

Villar Pellice and Val Pellice

Nestled at an altitude of approximately 664 meters, Villar Pellice is one of the villages dotting Val Pellice, an alpine valley with a strong historical and cultural identity, the heart of the Waldensian tradition in Piedmont. The area is a popular destination for hiking and cycle tourism, with a network of trails winding through woods and peaks. The Family Rave Festival fits into this context as an opportunity to experience the mountains in a new way, combining electronic music culture with the discovery of the alpine landscape.
