Six days of sport, gastronomy, and music at the Arino sports ground in Dolo
The Festa dello Sport di Arino is the event that has enlivened the hamlet of Arino, in the Municipality of Dolo (province of Venice), for over thirty years. Organised by A.S.D. Arinese, it takes place on the sports ground in Via Monte Ortigara and spans six days dedicated to tournaments, open training sessions, and demonstrations of various disciplines.
The sports programme revolves around the youth football tournament «Lo scoiattolo d'oro» (The Golden Squirrel), dedicated to the Under-7 and Under-9 categories, alongside volleyball, karate, tennis, and dance: the stated aim is to promote sport among the local children and introduce them to different disciplines. Local associations are invited to present their activities.
Thanks to the work of numerous volunteers — athletes, parents, and young people from Arino — a food stand is set up with traditional Venetian dishes, from fried fish to grilled meats. Every evening, the festival continues with live music, until the final day which concludes with the draw of the lottery and a grand fireworks display. Admission is free.
In 2026, A.S.D. Arinese will once again host the Festa dello Sport di Arino, traditionally held between late May and early June. On the sports ground in Via Monte Ortigara, Dolo, six days of tournaments and demonstrations — from the youth football tournament «Lo scoiattolo d'oro» to volleyball, karate, tennis, and dance — will be accompanied by the food stand with Venetian cuisine and evening music. The closing day will feature the lottery draw and a fireworks display. The precise dates will be published by the organisers and the Municipality of Dolo in the weeks preceding the event.
Traditional programme of the event (awaiting the detailed 2026 schedule):
The final programme with dates and times will be announced by A.S.D. Arinese.
