Three days of sport, nature and music in the foothills of Pordenone
In Montereale Valcellina, a village in the foothills of Pordenone at the entrance to Valcellina, the Festa dello Sport is much more than a series of competitions. It's a weekend where the Polisportiva Comunale (Municipal Sports Club) opens its grounds on Via Stazione to the entire community, blending sports, nature, good food, and live music. The spirit is that of traditional Friulian village festivals: sport becomes the pretext for getting together.
The program offers a good variety: volleyball (including on grass), judo for adults and children, canoeing demonstrations at the nearby Lake Barcis, archery, and self-defense. Open training sessions, free trials, and demonstrations alternate in a schedule designed to introduce people of all ages to different sports in a welcoming environment surrounded by greenery.
Alongside sports, the festival offers guided nature excursions through the local woods, gastronomic events — from paella dinners to aperitifs with DJ sets — and, above all, music: every evening a concert closes the day, featuring bands like Red Flies and The Crazy Etilic Band. A mix that makes the event suitable for families, sports enthusiasts, and anyone looking for a different kind of weekend.
Montereale Valcellina is the gateway to Valcellina, a land of wild nature, spectacular gorges, and the picturesque Lake Barcis. The Festa dello Sport is an excellent opportunity to discover this corner of the Pordenonese area, combining the energy of the event with the beauty of an authentic territory.
