Edition 2025 — Festival of Peoples

In 2025, the Festival of Peoples in Arona was not yet active: the event promoted by the Artigiani di Pace network debuted with its first edition in May 2026, in Piazzale Camilla Ravera. In previous years, the Arona area had nevertheless cultivated intercultural dialogue through the initiatives of social associations that later merged into the festival.

The Festival of Peoples in Arona is a recently established event: its first edition was held in May 2026 in Piazzale Camilla Ravera, on the shores of Lake Maggiore. For this reason, no actual edition of the festival under this name took place in 2025.

However, the journey that led to the birth of the event is rooted in the work of numerous local associations — from the Anti-Violence Center to the Community of Sant'Egidio, from ANPI to Casa dei Popoli — gathered in the Artigiani di Pace network, which has long been committed in Arona to issues of hospitality, rights, and dialogue between cultures. It is from this network of experiences that the first Festival of Peoples blossomed in 2026.
