About Giustenice Summer Start Festival

The Giustenice Summer Start Festival is the event that, in mid-June, kicks off the festival season in the inland village of Savona. Organized by the Circolo Acli A Ca' Cumüna with the patronage of the Municipality, the festival enlivens Piazza San Michele with food stalls and musical evenings. A genuine village festival, designed for gathering outdoors with the arrival of good weather, enjoying traditional Ligurian dishes in a convivial and family atmosphere.

Summer begins in Giustenice

In mid-June, Giustenice, a village in the hinterland of Savona in Liguria, welcomes summer with the Summer Start Festival. In Piazza San Michele, food stalls and musical evenings mark the start of the village festival season.

A festival by the Acli circle

The event is organized by Circolo Acli A Ca' Cumüna APS, with the patronage of the Municipality of Giustenice. It is an expression of the associative fabric that, in Ligurian villages, keeps social life alive and organizes community gatherings.

Gastronomy and music

The food stalls open in the evening, offering traditional dishes, while live music accompanies the evenings, transforming the festival into a celebration. A simple and authentic occasion to be together outdoors, enjoying the first warm summer evenings.

The charm of the hinterland

Far from the crowds of the coastal resorts, the Summer Start Festival offers a glimpse of the most authentic Liguria, that of the villages in the Savona hinterland. An invitation to discover Giustenice and its community at the moment the town prepares to experience summer.
