Festa dell'Unità di Guglionesi
Political debate, typical cuisine and music in the heart of Basso Molise
About Festa dell'Unità
A week of politics and community
The Festa dell'Unità in Guglionesi, in Basso Molise (province of Campobasso), returns from July 25 to August 1, 2026 with a program that intertwines political debate, conviviality, and gastronomy. The common thread of this edition is the theme "Perspectives, Problems, Solutions", presented in a series of evening meetings open to citizens and visitors.
National debate guests
The festival brings prominent figures from Italian politics and trade unions to Guglionesi: the Honourable Gianni Cuperlo, Marta Bonafoni, an expert in rights and participation, and Senator Susanna Camusso, former general secretary of the CGIL. The events are held between Piazzetta Santa Chiara and the Villa Comunale Castellara, considered one of the natural balconies overlooking the Molise region.
Typical cuisine and live music
Each evening, alongside the meetings, there are food stalls offering traditional local dishes, live music, and social gatherings that make the Guglionesi Festa dell'Unità a highly attended summer event. The organization is managed by the Democratic Party Club of Guglionesi and the PD Federation of Basso Molise.
