FuturFestival Valsugana

A widespread festival for children's rights

The FuturFestival Valsugana is a travelling cultural event that involves numerous municipalities in the Valsugana valley, in the province of Trento (Trentino-Alto Adige), every summer. Dedicated to the theme of "children's rights and world peace," the festival is promoted by the Togethere Project and transforms squares, gardens, museums, and trails into spaces for play, creativity, and shared reflection. The various stages are distributed among the municipalities of Ronchi Valsugana, Roncegno Terme, Torcegno, Borgo Valsugana, Levico Terme, and Pergine Valsugana.

Workshops, circus, and street theatre

The heart of the festival is a rich calendar of activities designed for children and families: creative workshops, collective games, contemporary circus and street theatre performances, storytelling, music, and nature walks. Recurring guests include the Circo Patuf, the star of inaugurations and shows such as "Lapso" and the "Cabaret della Piuma." Each appointment weaves fun with an educational message, inviting both young and old to reflect on the values of listening, inclusion, and peace.

A commitment to solidarity

FuturFestival Valsugana operates on a free-will and conscious donation basis: the proceeds from the events support local and international solidarity projects. Recent editions have funded the Marafiki Primary School in Kenya, the Bambini Cardiopatici nel Mondo association in Milan, and the Gruppo Gaia Aiuto Handicap in Borgo Valsugana. This charitable vocation makes the festival not just a celebration, but also a concrete opportunity for civic engagement and citizenship education for new generations.

The grand finale on the Heart Path

The event traditionally concludes with a large animated walk on the "Sentiero del cuore" (Heart Path), which leads from Ronchi Valsugana to the charming "Giardino degli elfi" (Elves' Garden), amidst games, music, and symbols of peace. It is the most popular moment of the festival, bringing together families from across the valley in a symbolic journey dedicated to children's rights.

An event for the entire Valsugana

With its widespread and itinerant format, FuturFestival Valsugana showcases the territory of the Municipality of Ronchi Valsugana and the entire valley, offering visitors the chance to discover the villages, trails, and cultural sites of eastern Trentino. It is an ideal proposal for families vacationing in Valsugana during the summer season, amidst spas, mountains, and traditions.
