About Festa del Turista

In August, Vestenanova, a mountain village in the Veronese Lessinia region, welcomes its visitors with the Festa del Turista, a multi-decade event that has reached over forty editions. A craft market, concerts with orchestras, painting exhibitions, and a non-competitive FIASP fun run through the woods liven up the village in a festival designed for residents and tourists, organised by Pro Loco Vestenanova.

A festival for those who choose the mountains

The Festa del Turista di Vestenanova is the summer event of the municipality of Vestenanova, a village in the Veronese Lessinia region, in Veneto. Created to welcome and celebrate the tourists who choose these mountains as their holiday destination, the event is a multi-decade tradition, now in its fortieth edition, organised by Pro Loco Vestenanova in collaboration with the Municipality.

Crafts, music, and art

The programme blends different elements: the craft market, orchestral concerts, painting exhibitions, and gastronomic events featuring mountain flavours. The festival, with free admission, is designed to involve families and visitors of all ages, in a convivial atmosphere that enhances the identity of the village and its territory.

Walking through the woods

Among the most anticipated events is the non-competitive FIASP fun run, which takes participants to discover the trails and woods around Vestenanova. Sport, nature, crafts, and culture thus merge in a festival that celebrates the bond between the Lessinia community and its summer guests.

Craft market, orchestral concerts, painting exhibitions, and the non-competitive FIASP fun run through the Lessinia woods.
