About Festa dell'AVIS

At the end of June, the Commessaggio sports field, in the Oltrepò Mantovano area, hosts the Festa dell'AVIS, organised by the local blood donor section. Four evenings of Mantuan cuisine, ballroom dancing, and live music, in an event that combines a village festival with the promotion of blood donation.

The Festa dell'AVIS of Commessaggio

The Festa dell'AVIS is the annual event organised by the municipal section of the AVIS (Italian Association of Blood Volunteers) of Commessaggio, a small municipality in the province of Mantua in the Oltrepò Mantovano area. It takes place at the end of June at the sports field on Via Indipendenza.

Cuisine, Dancing, and Music

The festival offers several evenings (traditionally four) of Mantuan cuisine, with food stalls alongside ballroom dancing and live music. It is one of the most cherished events of the village's summer, capable of attracting residents of Commessaggio and neighbouring municipalities.

A Festival with a Purpose

In addition to the convivial atmosphere, the Festa dell'AVIS is also an opportunity to remember the value of blood donation and support the activities of the local donor section. An example of the vitality of volunteerism in the small towns of the province of Mantua.
