A day dedicated to board games in the lush greenery of Parco Widemann
Nestled in the heart of the Chisone and Germanasca Valleys, the small town of San Germano Chisone (Province of Turin, Piedmont) hosts a simple yet infectious event: the Game Festival. This day is entirely dedicated to board games, social connection, and entertainment for all ages. Held in the lush setting of Parco Comunale Villa Widemann, one of the most charming corners of the town, the event is designed to bring together families, children, teenagers, and hobbyists of every generation.
The philosophy behind the festival is clear: to highlight the value of play as an occasion for meeting, sharing, and community. In an era dominated by screens, the event offers an open, cheerful, and inclusive space where people of all ages can gather around a table and rediscover the beauty of quality time spent together. You are welcome to bring your favorite board games or let yourself be guided through the many activities offered by the organizers and enthusiasts present.
Throughout the day, the park comes alive with stands featuring board gamesโfrom timeless classics to the latest releasesโas well as chess, card games, mystery games, table tennis, and areas dedicated to reading and drawing. There is no shortage of options for the little ones, with tailored games and activities that make the festival truly accessible to everyone. Those who wish to can also test their skills in tournaments within a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.
The Game Festival is organized by the Pro Loco of San Germano Chisone, with the patronage of the Municipality and in collaboration with the Parco Comunale Villa Widemann Association. It is a prime example of how a small community in the Turin valleys can create quality events that showcase their local spaces and bring new life to one of the town's most beautiful parks. Admission is free: simply head to Parco Widemann and join the fun.
