Festival della Storia di Ancona

The 2025 edition, the seventh, of the Festival della Storia di Ancona was held from September 11th to 14th at the Mole Vanvitelliana, on the theme "Passions". Twenty-five meetings explored the passions that span history and current events — from politics to sports, from theater to music, from eros to food. Among the guests were Gianfranco Pasquino, who opened the event with a reflection on "Politics: vocation and participation", Nadia Urbinati, Felice Casson, Patrizio Bianchi, Patrizia Gabrielli, and Alberto Mantovani. On September 14th, a historical walk dedicated to Ancona and Garibaldi was also held, starting from the Museum of the Risorgimento. All events were free admission and no reservation was required.
